was doing some researches and came about this place. located along redhill mrt station, on the second storey of a small house which seems to be a residence previously. it is an organisation which provides counselling sessions or group support for people with all forms of addiction

there are only less than 5 staff and some of them are deficient in some parts of their bodies yet capable of working just like normal people do

i was greeted by one of the counsellor who brought me around. a very nice and approachable lady, i believe thats one of the criteria being a counsellor? she told me that the organisation has a simple goal, which is let people know they are not alone. it wants to gather people who have addiction problems and treat them just like anyone else.

its not a fanciful place, as they save in whatever ways they can with the tight budget. they are just focused on their goal.

most of us may have stereotypes with such organization. but it was the warmth of the people that impressed me so much. everyone was smiling, looking so happy while doing their job.

as explained to me, most people are reluctant to admit that they need help, as its not exactly anything 'glamourous'. but even they finally decided to help themselves, it is also very expensive to seek for help in singapore in terms of physical or mental treatment.

thus, we care charges reasonably so as to allow everyone to have the chance of helping themselves.
