Two brand new Mobile Psychosocial Units, which will soon provide a variety of services including guidance and counselling to students across the coastland, were commissioned yesterday by Minister of Education Nicolette Henry.
The commissioning ceremony was held at the Ministry of Education (MoE) at Lot 26 Brickdam, Georgetown. The two units, which cost $21 million, are a collaborative effort by the MoE and the ministries of Social Protection and Public Health. The first unit was commissioned in November last year.
Guidance and Counselling Officer Wendy Collins said that the units were set up with the interest and welfare of the students in mind.
