With Impart, EESF supports the largest model of community-focused mental health care in Singapore, reaching 1,200 youths each year through direct mental health interventions, crisis support, and developmental opportunities across various aspects of need and interest. This holistic model of community mental health ensures that youths don’t simply have symptoms treated, but are well supported through these crucial years of growth. Over 100 former beneficiaries return each year to regularly volunteer with the organization, proving that when care takes root in community, it grows into lasting resilience.
