May 25,
2015, CAGAYAN DE ORO – The NMS Cares team went up and running in full
gear at the Philippine Federation of the Deaf General Assembly at the Malasag
Eco-village in Cugman, Cagayan De Oro. The event, which ran from May 14 to May
17 was hosted by the Deaf Association of Misamis Oriental, bearing the theme,
“One Family, One Community”.
NMSC
showcased its varied programs at the event’s bazaar exhibit, ranging from enhancing
Deaf education through the use of technology to helping forge a strong
communication between the Deaf and hearing community.
To further demonstrate one of its most in-demand programs, convention attendees were treated to a unique experience as iPads being used for the Learning thru Interactive Visual Education (LIVE) Program were made available for everyone to explore. This allowed the NMSC team to show delegates from students to Deaf educators and advocates how one of its programs is being implemented, giving them an opportunity to consider applying the same program to their respective communities.

The PFD General Assembly provided NMSC
a great opportunity to connect and interact with the Deaf community on a
national level and has given the organization a new level of understanding on
the specific needs of the Deaf community it continues to advocate for.
Apart from running an information
booth, NMSC also presented a short video presentation during the event’s
opening night, which allowed the delegates a glimpse of NMSC’s past and ongoing
initiatives.

Baguio City – Young Deaf learners actively participated and engaged with
the NMSC team at the launch of the LIVE (Learning thru Interactive Visual
Education) Program at the St. Lorenzo Ruiz Institute – Deaf Learning Resource
Center (SLRI-LRC) last Monday, January 19, 2015.
 |
| SLRI-LRC students engage with Deaf Education Coordinator, Nicole Goliat at the first lesson under the LIVE Program. |
The program is aimed at enhancing
young Deaf Learners’ math and English skills through the use of iPads. This
initiative was launched in the effort of bringing a more visual and interactive
approach of learning to the young Deaf learners.
SLRI students aged 14-20 years
old were the first to utilize the iPads using applications created with corresponding
lesson plans specially formulated in accordance with their respective learning
levels. Another partnered institution, the Baguio School for the DEAF (BSD), on
the other hand will have its first run of the LIVE Program on Friday, January
23, 2015. The classes will be done weekly, where the facilitators will also be
monitoring the progress of the students.

On the forefront of this
initiative is Program Development Manager, Ember Palma, and along with her are
the Deaf Education Coordinators, Yvonne Celeste and Nicole Goliat. By the end
of this program, NMSC aims for each student to have a richer understanding and
application of the lessons they are taught in school, through the supplemental
learning experience, which the LIVE Program provides.
 |
| The iPads serve as a visual interactive aid for young Deaf learners to enhance their learning experience. |

January 7, 2015, Baguio City - We here at NMS Cares wish everyone a HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
2014 has truly been a great and fulfilling year for NMS Cares as we witnessed growth not only inside the team, but also in spreading the word about our organization and getting more people involved. Throughout the previous year, we had been blessed in forging solid partnerships with local institutions catering to the Deaf, thus being able to widen the reach of our service.
The year 2015 holds great promise for NMS Cares as several programs are lined up to launch during the start of the year. Among these programs is the LIVE (Learning thru Interactive Visual Education), set to launch on January 9, 2014 under the facilitation of Program Manager, Ember Palma. Through this program, students are given an opportunity to enhance math and reading skills in a highly interactive manner, through the use of iPads. The use of the iPads help not only in stimulating the young Deaf learners' visual comprehension, but also in empowering them to be technologically adept in this digital age. Another program that will hit the ground running this year is the Career Orientation Program aimed at shedding some light on possible career options that young Deaf individuals may pursue. The target launch of this program would be during the 1st quarter of the year. NMS Cares is opening its doors to all possible opportunities to which we can contribute and make a difference, most especially in the lives of Deaf youth.
It is with high hopes and continuing hard work that we greet 2015. May NMS Cares continue to flourish and grow in the upcoming year, and may more people become involved in our vision to making Deaf children reach their dreams.
Happy New Year from the NMSC Team :)

December 9, 2014, BAGUIO CITY – The NMS Cares team was proud to be part of the celebration
of the International Day of Persons with Disabilities last December 8, 2014.
As an internationally celebrated event, the theme for this year was, “Sustainable Development: The Promise of Technology”. Throughout the program, this theme had been embodied by the various performances that came from the PWD community in Benguet. Also there to grace the event and give his speech about the government’s current programs for the PWD was city mayor, Mauricio Domogan.

Present at the event were various associations and schools
for Persons With Disabilities (PWD) from Baguio City and La Trinidad. It was
spearheaded by Caritas Baguio-Benguet, the Federation of Persons with
Disabilities (PWD) in Baguio City, and the Committee on Employment, Livelihood
and Cooperatives and Persons with Disabilities (PWD) as headed by Councilor
Isabelo Cosalan. The celebration kicked off with a parade that started at the
Baguio Cathedral at 8:00AM and ended at the Baguio Convention Center where the
program had ensued.

This year’s celebration had been a follow-up to the Public
Hearing and Consultation on Persons with Disabilities, which was held last
December 3, 2014. The aim of that public hearing had been to inform the PWD’s
in the city of several proposed laws and programs made specifically for the PWD
community. Among these proposed legislative measures was councilor Cosalan’s
proposed ordinance of institutionalizing the local celebration and observance
of the International Day of the People with Disabilities every third of
December each year, as promoted by the United Nations (UN) since 1991. If
approved, this celebration would be included in Baguio City’s yearly calendar
of activities, making this year’s celebration the first of many more to come.
