Vision & Mission

Our Mission

Helping People with Dyslexia and Other Specific Learning Differences Achieve

Our Goal

To build a world class organisation dedicated to helping dyslexic people and those with specific learning differences in Singapore.

 

Our Strategy

The DAS strategy in the coming years remains unchanged and this is "To build a comprehensive and holistic range of programmes and services for our clients with Dyslexia and Specific Learning Differences". Major areas for development include the increasing use of technology in our classrooms, piloting additional support for Normal Tech students and students from Institutes of Higher Learning as well as highlighting the challenge of bullying amongst students with dyslexia.

The breadth and complexity of work at DAS has increased significantly. DAS is recognised as the Specialist Provider of services for Dyslexia and Specific Learning Differences in Singapore, we continue to be the pioneering country in almost everything we do and there is much more we can accomplish for the greater benefit of our clients with Dyslexia and Specific Learning Differences.

Our Aim

1. To put quality first in delivering a comprehensive and effective professional service for dyslexic people and those with specific learning differences on a not-for profit basis.

2. To provide an assessment service for individuals at risk of having dyslexia and/or specific learning differences.

3. To provide educational programme and other support services for individuals with dyslexia and/or specific learning differences.

4. To raise public and professional awareness of the nature and incidence of dyslexia and specific learning differences.

5. To enable others (teachers, parents and professionals) to help dyslexic individuals and those with specific learning differences.

6. To assist and elicit financial and other support for people with dyslexia, those with specific learning differences and their families.

7. To promote and carry out local research into dyslexia, specific learning differences and to disseminate results.

8. To network with other organisations in Singapore and internationally to bring best practices to the DAS and Singapore.

DAS as a Social Enterprise

DAS views itself as a social enterprise. We strive to be a sustainable business with a social mission. Our business is used as a means to help dyslexic people achieve. We reinvest our surpluses to fulfil our social objectives and in doing so, combine the entrepreneurial and business skills with our philanthropic mission characteristics as a not-for-profit organisation.

Characteristics of DAS Social Enterprise

1. We provide high-quality, professional, innovative and client-focused solutions to create and sustain services for the dyslexic community in Singapore and the region.

2. We operate as a financially viable and cost-effective business which at the same time ensures that no dyslexic person is unable to access our services because they cannot afford it.

3. We generate social returns on our investments through the development of a dynamic, motivated team of highly qualified and experienced professionals.

4. We have a heightened sense of accountability to stakeholders through our professional management team.

About DAS

Dyslexia Association of Singapore (DAS) is today a vibrant social service organisation with over 250 full-time staff who provide a wide array of services for individuals with dyslexia not only in Singapore but in the region.
