Our Thrusts

Unconditional Service

The Sanggunian shall offer its services without prejudice up to the highest standards available.

Cura Personalis

“Care for the whole person.” Cura personalis comes down to the respect for all that makes up each individual.

Critical & Creative Thinking

The exercise and pursuit of critical thinking and self-reflexivity are not only geared towards building a Sanggunian that is cognizant of its external political environment.

Collaborative Practice

Collaborative practice happens when multiple stakeholders from different professional backgrounds both within and outside Sanggu work together with our constituents and potential allies such as the administration to deliver the highest quality of care across settings.

Faith that Does Justice

As students of a Catholic and Jesuit University, the Sanggunian believes that to live a genuine faith entails cultivating and practicing a sense of responsibility towards the well-being of one’s neighbor and countryman.

Nation-Building

Sanggu will work for the benefit of the Nation and the Filipino People as a whole.

Active Non-Violence

The use of peaceful means in an “active” or persistent manner to push for, and bring about, political and social change.
