NTU WSC Regular Service Project for the Intellectually Disabled

NTU WSC Regular Service Project for the Intellectually Disabled RSPID conducts weekly sessions for Persons With Intellectual Disability at MINDS WGS & Clementi TDC It is also the first RSP of NTU Welfare Services Club.

Regular Service Project for the Intellectually Disabled (RSPID) is formed in 1985. RSPID is currently working together with West End, one of the project groups under MINDS Youth Group (MYG), to conduct weekly sessions for our Intellectually Disabled beneficiaries. Sessions are held every Saturday, from 2.30pm to 5.30pm, at MINDS Woodlands Gardens School. The session comprises of Pre Sing-along, Si

ng-along, Curricular Development Training (CDT), Physical and Recreational Training (PRT) and Tea Break. Each segment are personalised according to RSPIDโ€™s quarterly themes, planned and executed by our dedicated volunteers. Occasionally, outdoor activities such as Swimming Therapies, visit to Singapore Zoo and other places of interest are arranged, to expose our beneficiaries to the ever-changing environment. RSPID's ultimate goals are to help our beneficiaries integrate into our society, gain open employment and create a strong sense of belonging for both our beneficiaries as well as our volunteers. RSPID aims to impart useful social skills to our Intellectually Disabled beneficiaries by organising enriching programs/outings to develop their potential to the fullest. RSPID also acts an avenue for undergraduates from Nanyang Technological University to give direct service to/forge bonds with People with Intellectual Disabilities (PWIDs).

Our CTDC trainees also visited Jurong Lake Gardens for their annual Lights by The Lake 2022 event, where they saw unique hand-crafted lantern displays ๐Ÿฎ๐Ÿฎ. See you guys next year!

Guud Carnival
