School Social Work

CARE Singapore offers year-long comprehensive, preventive, holistic, supportive and motivational life-skills programme designed for Primary and Secondary School students.

Research-based, field-tested, proven and cost-effective, these programmes have impacted well over 30,000 lives since 1997.

All our programmes, like TSP (The Scaffold Programme), Uth Power!, StarKidz!, Mentoring (Secondary School), YOUthrive!, etc, are specially designed for positive youth development.

On a weekly basis, a dynamic team of professional Youth Workers and Counsellors meet and work with students. With the rapport and positive relationships established, students feel safe to turn to them for guidance and support when needed.

Counselling

CARE Singapore offers an array of counselling services that support children, youths and their families.We provide emotional support through one-on-one counselling, casework management as well as group work.

Taking a systemic approach, we work closely with stakeholders like parents, school teachers and the community to enhance the socio-ecological interactions of our young clients.

While our clients are mainly from our school-based work, we also provide counselling services to individuals or families experiencing emotional, psychological, relationship and marital issues. We take a client-centred approach; our highly skilled counsellors and therapists will select from an array of therapeutic techniques for the best fit in each situation.

Training for Parents and Teachers

CARE provides training workshops, group-based customised training and consultancy for schools, teachers, youth-workers and other social-service practitioners to deal and work with vulnerable youths as well as other youth issues.

Working closely with the parents and teachers of our youths, our organization strongly believes in fostering a strong and secure relationship between the youth and care-giver. Workshops such as, Parenting Power! and Family Matter @ Schools! are some of the avenues that CARE Singapore take to reach out to parents.

We support families and schools with a systemic model of psycho-education that helps to strengthen relationships and thus increasing the resilience of youths. With our solution-focused and strength-based approach, we work to improve facilitating and parenting skills in managing arising challenges during their children’s developmental stages.

Positive Youth Development Mentoring

We provide training, coordination, and support for mentors to engage and guide youths in various settings. We work with mentor-volunteers who also believe that it takes a village to raise a child.

They are a group of dedicated adults who have committed their time and effort to nurture and mentor our youths outside school hours. We work with the community very closely to support not only the mentors, but also to enrich the lives of the young people the mentors work with.
