COMPANY DESCRIPTION

The Children and Youth Group (CYG) in The Salvation Army Singapore serves hundreds of vulnerable children and youth yearly. In line with our vision to provide a continuum of care to uplift those in need, our services span from preventive services, foster care and residential services to reunification support services for vulnerable children returning to their natural families after being removed due to safety concerns. We believe that every child is precious and unique and children grow best in families. We also believe in the potential of every child and family to transform and thrive.

The Youth Development Centre is one of CYG's services and reaches out to latch-key young people from low to middle income families to guide them towards a more purposeful life, live out their dreams and contribute well to society.

As an outreach centre, the staff and volunteers engage the youth with a variety of sports, music and social activities to impart life skills that will help them build a strong foundation for their future. We run a drop-in centre to provide young people in the community with a safe and conducive place to hang out. We also run youth mental health programmes such as resilience building to help youth thrive. Through our youth mental health programmes we reach out to youth in the community as well as at risk youth in residential care. We also provide supervised access services for vulnerable children and youth.

Further, Youth Development Centre is also an incubator for new services such as youth mental health.
