For eligibility to financial schemes
CaringSG is a caregiver-led initiative for special needs caregivers and the community.
We help caregivers find a support group via our CaringSG Alliance Network. We run inclusive events for personal knowledge, skills, respite, social activities and more.
We train CAREbuddies (who are special needs caregivers themselves) to provide emotional support to fellow caregivers through individualised routine-based approach and information sharing.
Our multidisciplinary team of professional volunteers help to better coordinate health and social services to support special needs caregivers and their families.
The Enabling Guide is for anyone looking for information and advice on schemes, services, supports and resources related to disability in Singapore.
