about us
Youth Guidance Outreach Services (YGOS) is a non-profit, charitable organisation that has been serving youths in the community for the last 24 years, making sure that every youth who comes through our doors receives the care and support that they greatly deserve.
Established in 1996, YGOS is registered as an independent entity with its own constitution, together with the Registry of Societies. We are an Institution of a Public Character (IPC) and a member with the National Council of Social Service (NCSS).
YGOS programmes are based on 3 fundamentals: Youth-centric, theory-based and fun! Our Social Work professionals aim to support every youth to reach their potential through timely preventive, early intervention and remedial programmes, which are led by research, theories, experience and professional excellence.
