Community care must be central to our mental health strategy
The Straits Times
|May 29, 2025
We appreciate the article, "Community care: How one man managed his agoraphobia without hospital treatment" (The Sunday Times, May 25). It illustrates the transformative potential of community-based mental health support in enabling individuals to recover meaningfully and restore agency over their lives.
-
At Allkin Singapore, we see this daily in our work. Community-based support reduces stigma, closes accessibility gaps, and reminds us that individuals are not problems to be fixed, but people with stories to be heard and strengths to be rekindled.
