MILESTONES AND ACHIEVEMENTS
With 11 schools and centres situated island-wide, and a staff
strength of 584, internal communication is critical to help all staff
keep abreast of the latest happenings in MINDS. At the same
time, external communication allows MINDS to inform the public
about its mission and services, and enhance public acceptance of
persons with intellectual disability. The Public Relations, Education
and Communications Committee aims to bring people together,
connect people to MINDS and thereby help to bring about a more
inclusive society.
MINDSPEAK
MINDSpeak is a quarterly newsletter circulated to staff, caregivers,
members, donors and volunteers of MINDS. In the first half of 2011,
two issues of the newsletter were published and disseminated.
The content informs readers of important events and activities held
across MINDS’ different facilities island-wide, educates readers on
the various aspects of intellectual disability and its management,
and inspires readers through real life accounts of clients, caregivers,
and staff who have overcome obstacles and achieved success in
their own ways.
