About SACA
A FOUNDING MEMBER OF THE CARE NETWORK
The Singapore After-Care Association is a key aftercare agency that helps ex-offenders adjust to life after prison.
Staff & volunteers at SACA step in to help as much as possible. When ex-offenders do well after they are released from prison, they are less likely to re-offend again.
After clients are released from prison, they often experience shame and feel judged by society.
​
They wonder if their family and friends will accept them. Depression and anxiety among them are common. Housing, familial & financial issues are some of the challenges that come up.
​
Can they find the stability and strength to cope with the stresses of life and not reoffend?
An exemplary organisation in the aftercare sector, SACA is committed to:
Empowering ex-offenders
to take ownership of their own transformation & facilitating their reintegration into society by mobilising them, their families and the public;
Fostering a change in mindset
of both ex-offenders and society to enable ex-offenders achieve their fundamental life goals and needs.
