Topics covered include communication, conflict resolution, couple strength and growth, family-of-origin exploration, sexual intimacy and family planning.

For Children

Centre-based Mentoring Programme

This programme is a volunteer-driven programme in which children or adolescents requiring better social guidance and support are matched with a volunteer mentor.

Group Workshop Series

The centre conducts fun interactive workshops for children on topics commonly associated with their age-profile. Some of these topics include anger management, self-esteem, resilience, stress management, bullying and divorce.

For Elderly

Elderly Befriending Programme

Elderly who have few or no family members often need greater social support in their later years. Our volunteers are deployed to pay regular visits to these elderly to render social and emotional support to them.
