HCSA Community Services is a charitable organisation with Institution of a Public Character (IPC) status and a member of the National Council of Social Service. Through our comprehensive support programmes and services, we aim to help former offenders aim for long-term desistance and re-integrate into the community.
We provide a safe and substance-free shelter at HCSA Highpoint for male ex-offenders to restart their lives, and sustained social support to renew their purpose within the community through our support groups for our alumni and their loved ones.
HCSA Highpoint's Impact in FY2024
Residential Care
After being released from prison, our residents are often without a home to return to. They often present with zero income and minimal support from their family. Our residents’ immediate needs are thus to secure both gainful employment and long-term housing, so that they can achieve and sustain self-sufficiency after graduating from Highpoint’s transitional living programme.
Alumni After-Care
Second chances can strengthen our clients' resolve to change, and Highpoint nurtures their renewed sense of belonging by opportunities to give back to the community. We also enable two major ground-up initiatives that sustains their re-integration journey: AIMS, where our alumni support and sustain one another; and WISDOM, a pro-social support network by their partners.
We equip vulnerable individuals at HCSA Academy with professional skills to secure stable employment in the F&B industry, giving them a new lease of life to support themselves and their families.
HCSA Academy's Impact in FY2024
Student Care
HCSA Academy adopts a social enterprise model and follows a holistic adult pedagogy to prepare F&B professionals who are workplace-ready. Through skills training, a nationally recognised qualification and job placement, we help our graduates secure gainful employment to provide for themselves and their families.
