There's a new podcast in town, one that is for fathers by fathers. It is co-hosted by our own Head of Programmes. A new episode will be released every Wednesday. Visit wearedadstoo.com for new episodes.
The Centre for Fathering and DADs for Life have been actively partnering Singapore Prison Service annually to organise fathering workshops and father-child bonding programmes. On 6 November 2020, several incarcerated fathers and their children took part in a Zoom session where the Dads read books to their children and played games with them. These Dads also surprised their children with hand-made cards.
These programmes help incarcerated fathers build stronger relationships with their children and minimise the negative impact of their absence on their children's lives while they are in prison. Read more about our programmes for incarcerated fathers here: www.fathers.com.sg/families-bonds-through-prison-outreach/.
We need your support to reach out to more fathers of marginalised families such as incarcerated fathers and their families, and families of children with special needs and youth-at-risk.

IMAGINE the bicycle you're riding on suddenly transforms by itself into a high powered motorbike. What would you be tempted to do?
Naturally, you'd want to push the bike to its limits and 'see what this baby can do!"
At puberty, your child's brain undergoes a transformation. It becomes many times faster and more efficient. On the bright side, his is a better thinker. On the other hand, he can become more argumentative. What is the correct response of parents to a teen's new behaviour pattern?

Our work to drive Singaporeโs Fathering movement plays an even more significant role during this pandemic.
To engage families who are spending more time at home during COVID-19, we had organised 60 online programmes on various platforms for fathers and children since March last year. The sessions garnered over 230,000 views! These include Facebook Live for fathers discussing topics close to their hearts, such as conflict management at home and storytelling for parents and children, as well as Zoom sessions where fathers shared experiences and encouraged each other.
We also designed various resources such as conversation starters from the DADs for Life "Knowing Me Knowing You" family card game and DADs Guides with useful tips for fathers on COVID-19.
To find out more about our on-going programmes, do visit us at fathers.com.sg.
As we rely on the strong support of donors and sponsors to help us achieve our mission, any contribution will...

Any business that wants to be successful knows it is important to retain and motivate its key employees.
Research has shown that the more satisfied and happy an employee feels, the less likely they will leave their employer. Even better, this relationship grows stronger over time.
While a small degree of overall turnover can be healthy for a business, the costs associated with the loss of expertise, coupled with having to recruit and train up new employees can become significant.
