Pilot Programme:

Temasek Foundation Achieving Resilient & Inspiring Families (Project ARIF)

The Temasek Foundation Achieving Resilient & Inspiring Families (Project ARIF)* aims to provide better support to couples in preparation for marriage and family life, and to optimise maternal wellness and child development. This pilot project is a collaboration between Temasek Foundation, KK Women’s and Children’s Hospital (KKH) and the Islamic Religious Council of Singapore (Muis).

Under the programme, each couple will receive a specially-developed guide book on maternal and child health and invitations to attend a series of webinars, both put together by a dedicated team of doctors, nurses and medical social workers from KKH in collaboration with community partners. This programme is also supported by Naib Kadis (officials of religious standings and solemnisers of Muslim marriages) and mosque personnel from the North Cluster of Singapore.

* As part of the Bersamamu (With You) programme, an initiative by the Registry of Muslim Marriages (ROMM) under the M³ framework

Announcements 16 preschools establish a new service model to identify developmental, growth and oral health needs in children from 2 months old. Model to expand to more preschools Ella1 was enrolled as an 18-month-old playgroup (PG) student at a PCFSP at Punggol in October 2022. After a few months, as part of routine monitoring based on a surveillance checklist developed by MIP2, educators noted that compared to her peers, Ella was not communicating verbally and played alone. While Ella was able to follow instructions, she was unable to express her needs verbally. Typically, such behaviours may have been attributed to her young age and gone unidentified until they worsen. However, under the MIP2 service model and the guidance of the School Child Development Unit (SCDU), Ella was identified to be at risk and require low levels of support for developmental needs based on the MIP2 service model.
