About Us
Set up in 1986, Singapore Anglican Community Services Family Care Centre provides temporary and safe accommodation and supportive service to persons experiencing family violence, and to empower them with healing and hope to re-integrate into community.
The Centre is more than a shelter. It has multi-faceted programmes that look into the client's psychological, social and financial needs. Family Care Centre aims to rehabilitate and empower our clients, so that they will be able to choose a life for themselves and their children that are free of violence, fear and oppression. We assist in the emotional and psychological healing of the women and children, and prepare the women for violence-free lives once they leave the centre. The staffs at Family Care Centre work with the women to help them foster independence and provide them with general skills, while strengthening her confidence in her decision making, parenting, interpersonal communication skills and in the work place.
