Following the recommendations of the 2026 Taskforce on Assurance for Families with Persons with Disabilities, MSF, SG Enable and partners will progressively strengthen support for persons with disabilities and their caregivers across life stages.
The enhancements will help families plan ahead with greater confidence, make adult disability services more affordable, bring support closer to home, and make healthcare and everyday spaces more accessible.
To help persons with disabilities and caregivers plan ahead for life transitions, Future Care Planning support will be introduced across adult disability services. This builds on the Individual Transition Plans developed in SPED schools.
Currently piloted at selected touchpoints; expanding from 2027.
MSF will reduce fees after government subsidies for services such as Day Activity Centres and Adult Disability Homes.
| Household income (per capita) | Day Activity Centre: today → 2028 | Adult Disability Home: today → 2028 |
|---|---|---|
| $6,000 ($1,500) | $210 → $40 | $3,500 → $700 |
| $13,000 ($3,250) | $710 → $400 | $7,000 → $1,600 |
Persons with intellectual disability or autism with significant care needs will be explicitly included for:
Across Singapore, including 1,000 places committed earlier.
Structured learning for independent living, community participation and employability. DACs and SWs will progressively become Enabling Skills Centres.
Community touchpoints that bring support closer to where families live.
Set up in phases at eight sites, including the ESHs at Tampines, Jurong West and Punggol.
MOH will make polyclinic care more accessible for persons with intellectual disability and autism.
A personalised document that tells healthcare staff how a person communicates and what support they need.
MOH and SG Enable will progressively roll out HCP and work on expanding it to other healthcare settings. HCP will also potentially support persons with other disability types in the future.
Better communication and practical accommodations such as priority queuing, at all polyclinics by 2028.
At least three polyclinics, one per cluster: pre-visit preparation, longer consultations and help with follow-up care.
Moving from awareness to practical skills, so people interact confidently with persons with disabilities.
A more accessible leisure destination, with SDC.
Pilot with Lendlease: jobs, job coaching, tenant training.
Pilot with grassroots: friendlier parks and hawker centres.
Existing services and schemes remain available. You do not need to wait to seek help.
SG Enable and MSF will engage you ahead of implementation.
