About us
Youth Guidance Outreach Services (YGOS) is a non-profit, charitable organisation that has been serving youths in the community since 1996.
To make sure that every youth who comes through our doors receives the care and support that they deserve.
YGOS is registered as an independent entity with its constitution, together with the Registry of Societies. We are an Institution of Public Character (IPC) and a member of the National Council of Social Service (NCSS).
YGOS programmes are based on 3 fundamental pillars: Youth-centric, theory-based and fun! Our Social Work professionals aim to support every youth to reach their potential through timely preventive, early intervention and remedial programmes, which are led by research, theories, experience and professional excellence.
Preventive
Programmes that seek to be a platform for positive engagement with youths, directing them towards healthy psychosocial activities and away from crime.
Developmental

We’re running this campaign, "Rebuilding Lives, Restoring Families - One Youth At a Time " from 1 July - 30 Sept 2026 🏠❤️
For every youth we help, a family is given their child back. We are not just rebuilding young lives, we are restoring families. When Joe arrived, he had lost his freedom and his connection to those who mattered most. What began as harmless fun with drugs quickly spiraled. Now, during his one-year order, Joe is choosing recovery - taking steps to rebuild trust, reconnect with his family, and start again. When one life is rebuilt, an entire family is made whole again.
The Community Rehabilitation Centre (CRC) is a step-down centre from the Drug Rehabilitation Centre, dedicated to helping young male drug offenders. It seeks to provide a structured living environment for the residential youths aged 16 to below 21, helping them kick their addictive habits while carrying on with school or work outside.
With your support, we can:
-
Equip families with skills and awareness in supporting clients in their recovery with addiction, strengthening positive relationships with the youth.
-
Enhance youth’s emotion regulation skills and psycho-educate them on the impact of drug abuse, tapping on group and peer learning environments to promote a more validated learning environment.
-
Support academic and vocational engagement by working with schools and employers, keeping youths meaningfully engaged in their education or work and less likely to return to antisocial behaviours.
Your support does more than help a young person leave their past behind- it gives them a future to believe in.
Donate today and empower youths to start anew!
Thank you for your incredible support. Please share this with your family, friends and partners too!
