MINDS Napiri Training & Development Centre (NTDC) welcomed its first group of clients on 1 March 2006 and was officially opened by Dr Vivian Balakrishnan, Minister for Community Development, Youth and Sports on 14 April 2007. It is MINDS’ third oldest TDC, and operates from within the premises of MINDSville@Napiri – MINDS’ multi-service residential facility. MINDS NTDC was set up to serve clients residing in the eastern parts of Singapore.

We provide services for adults with intellectual disabilities who require a higher level of support, or have a greater degree of special needs that require continuous specialised help. Our centre-based service offers respite care for caregivers by relieving them of their usual caregiving duties and allowing them to focus on other responsibilities.

With a focus on developing their independent living skills, our programme builds on the foundation adults with special needs have established in their formative years while enhancing their emotional and physical well-being through providing professional care by our Allied Health Professional team.
