Championing the Rights & Well-Being of Autistic Individuals

Friends of Autism Charitable Trust (FACT) was established on 24 June 2020 with a singular purpose: to build a robust support system for autistic individuals and the families who care for them across Singapore.

🎯

Our Vision

A structured support system that empowers parents and caregivers to build a better future for their loved ones with autism β€” improving mental, emotional, and practical well-being.

πŸ’š

Our Mission

To relieve hardship and advance the welfare of autistic individuals and their caregivers through direct financial support, practical services, and community education.

⚑

Our Approach

Holistic, compassionate, and community-driven. We believe that supporting the caregiver is just as vital as supporting the individual with autism.

Part-Time Caregiving Services

Caregiver burnout is real. Our part-time caregiver support gives families meaningful respite β€” allowing caregivers to rest, attend to personal matters, and recharge so they can continue providing the best care possible.

"The part-time caregiving service has been a lifesaver. I could finally have a few hours each week to see a doctor myself and just breathe. I didn't realise how much I needed that break."
