The Youth Executive Committee (YEC) have just launched a community service club – “The Starlight Club”, under the youth group on Sunday, 15th March 2009. In their efforts to promote greater inclusivity in the community, the YEC have initiated a pilot project to establish and provide support to youths with special needs in the community (i.e. Bishan-Toa Payoh GRC) by:
- providing the liaison between special schools and community to ensure that youths with special needs continue to have meaningful social activities and social support after they leave schools;
- organizing suitable activities for different activity groups of beneficiaries;
- connecting existing community support groups with beneficiaries.
The YEC are looking for young people, or the young at heart to contribute their time and efforts to assisting youths with special needs and youths at risk to integrate into the community
