Homelessness Exists In Singapore
Not many know, but there are more than 1,000 homeless persons in Singapore according to the nationwide street count conducted by the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy in 2021.
Homelessness is defined as a lack of access to adequate housing (Ng, 2021). There are different forms of homelessness:
Primary homelessness — people who do not have accommodation and have to sleep in public places
Secondary homelessness — people living in temporary housing such as interim shelters or moving frequently between accommodations
Tertiary homelessness — people living in insecure and inadequate accommodations
There are a variety of ways in which you can contribute to our work with the displaced and disadvantaged! From dining at our social enterprise cafe to befriending our beneficiaries, there's certainly an option that will suit your availability and preferences.
Our Services
& Programmes
What We Do
At New Hope Community Services, our goal goes beyond providing temporary shelter to those we serve; we want to infuse them with real hope to see their lives changed.
Joint Singles Scheme (Operator Run) Pilot
In 2022, we were appointed to run the Joint Singles Scheme Operator-Run (JSS-OR) Pilot at Bukit Batok West.
SBFF Job Support & Retention Programme
Many homeless individuals and low income families desire work but have multiple barriers to overcome before they are able to gain – let alone sustain – employment.
Hope Scheme
We have been a mentoring agency for the Home Ownership Plus Education (HOPE) Scheme since 2011.
Temporary Shelter
The issue of homelessness was brought to the forefront with the onslaught of the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020.
Social Investigation
We are contracted by MSF to provide social investigation services for persons who come under the Destitute Persons Act, Chapter 78.
