About <strong>MINDS</strong><br />

<strong>MINDS</strong> stands for Movement for the Intellectually Disabled of<br />

Singapore. <strong>MINDS</strong> started with a single classroom of 26 children<br />

back in 1962. 47 years later, <strong>MINDS</strong> has grown to be one of the<br />

oldest and biggest VWOs in Singapore. <strong>MINDS</strong>’ services include<br />

four special education schools, three sheltered workshops,<br />

three day activity centres and a multi-service residential facility<br />

catering to a broad spectrum of ages and needs of persons with<br />

intellectual disability. <strong>MINDS</strong> serves about 2,400 clients in the 11<br />

facilities located island-wide. <strong>MINDS</strong> had received strong support<br />

from various funding bodies, the community, corporations and<br />

individuals. It is our vision to grow and become a world-class<br />

VWO that advances the development, well-being and aspirations<br />

of persons with intellectual disability and their integration back<br />

into society.
