Singapore Prison Service

About Singapore Prison Service

"As a key partner in Criminal Justice, we protect society through the safe custody and rehabilitation of offenders, co-operating in prevention and aftercare." Partner in Criminal Justice Our work with offenders helps to ensure that Singapore is kept safe. Being part of the Criminal Justice System, we work very closely with the Judiciary and our other partner agencies in the Home Team. Protecting Society through Safe Custody & Rehabilitation The role of keeping offenders in custody is just a part of what we do. We are also committed to performing our duties in a humane manner, managed by a strict regimen of discipline and effective rehabilitation programmes. We are committed to offering offenders the opportunity to reform, while helping them to learn the skills necessary for their re-integration. To realise this goal, we also work closely with their families and the community. Prevention and Aftercare Our daily contact with inmates will enable us to gather valuable information which may be used to detect or prevent crime. As such, we are able to assist other lead agencies in the Home Team, for example the Singapore Police Force, in crime detection and prevention. In addition, we provide aftercare services to offenders upon their release from our custody, by directing them to community programmes and resources that could support them. Education for youths and children at risk of drug abuse or crime is vital to our efforts in keeping Singapore safe. We conduct programmes about crime and its penalties, that reach out to the larger community.
