Our Programmes

We seek to bridge an important gap in the community social services landscape through our programmes, which are firmly science-based and outcome-driven. We act as an incubator – working with partners to pilot and rigorously evaluate evidence-based interventions specifically for the Singapore community, and scale and implement such interventions in Singapore that prove to be feasible and effective.

We conduct our programmes at The Lighthouse, a children and youth-centric hub located at Punggol West. The Lighthouse is designed to encourage wellbeing activities and has three zones – Family Cove for child-related activities, Pitstop for youth wellbeing and peer support activities, and Xpression for arts, photography, dance and public speaking activities.

Research initiative

Survey: Singaporean parents believe playtime is important but there is a contradiction between their beliefs and actions.
Suncare SG conducted a national survey of over 1000 Singaporean parents with children aged 3 to 6 years old. It found that most parents believe playtime is important. Over 50% consider screen time a favourite play activity with their child, with 94.5% allowing device use on weekends. Despite this, 90% believe non-screen play is vital. This contradiction suggests a need to balance screen time with other play activities

You Sparkle

Building on a previous engagement with children around music, we are curating a special programmed called "You Sparkle" in collaboration with ComLink+ and Voices of Singapore to form a choir aimed at empowering children aged 7 to 14.
Aiming to serve 30 participants for the programme and another 30 as the control group, this initiative fosters self-empowerment, confidence, and well-being through singing and performance.
It addresses the needs of children returning home to empty houses and parents seeking engaging enrichment activities for their children.

YOU POWER+

You Power+ offers a unique Mentor Training Programme, equipping mentors with essential skillset to support mentees facing various challenges - academic, socio-emotional, and more. Mentors focus on befriending and building trusting relationships while adeptly handling mentees to overcome their challenges.
You Power+ Sports Mentoring offers support on leadership, teamwork, resilience, and goal-setting whereby players acquire essential skills both in sports and in life.
You Power+ fosters a sense of community and belonging across mentors and mentees.

You'll Be Alright

You'll Be Alright – A fun and engaging experiential programme (10 - 16 years old) where guided theatrical exercises and art work allow participants to explore and express their emotions, thoughts and experiences. The use of drama, role-play and creative expression allows youths to become self-aware and better understand concepts of self-identity (“I am”), capability (“I can”) and support systems “I have”. (For 13 – 16 years old, every Saturday 10.30am -12.30pm; For 10 - 12 years old, every Friday 4pm - 5.30pm)
