About <strong>MINDS</strong><br />
<strong>MINDS</strong> stands for Movement for the<br />
Intellectually Disabled of Singapore.<br />
<strong>MINDS</strong> started with a single classroom<br />
of 26 children back in 1962. 47 years<br />
later, <strong>MINDS</strong> has grown to be one of the<br />
oldest and biggest VWOs in Singapore.<br />
<strong>MINDS</strong>’ services include four special<br />
education schools, three sheltered<br />
workshops, three day activity centres<br />
and a multi-service residential facility<br />
catering to a broad spectrum of ages<br />
and needs of persons with intellectual<br />
disability. <strong>MINDS</strong> serves about 2,400<br />
clients in the 11 facilities located<br />
island-wide. <strong>MINDS</strong> had received<br />
strong support from various funding<br />
bodies, the community, corporations<br />
and individuals. It is our vision to<br />
grow and become a world-class VWO<br />
that advances the development, wellbeing<br />
and aspirations of persons<br />
with intellectual disability and their<br />
integration back into society.
