Men Becoming Better- Together

Singapore has a strong crisis response and survivor support systems. However, a critical gap remains in early, voluntary, and non-stigmatising engagement of men who are struggling before situations reach statutory or crisis thresholds. 

The Current Reality

• Reported family violence cases continue to rise 
• Many interventions are activated after escalation, limiting prevention opportunities 
• Without early engagement, cycles of harm repeat
• Responsibility for safety and repair remains uneven

What Is Needed

• Earlier, voluntary pathways for men to seek support
• Violence prevention that includes men’s mental health and emotional regulation
• Community spaces that reinforce accountability and non-violence
• Male ally cultures that model responsibility and challenge harmful norms
• Men must be part of the solution in order to break the cycle of harm
