For the week of 24 April 2023 (Monday, 24 April to Friday, 28 April), AWARE’s Sexual Assault Care Centre (SACC) will be closed. During this period, the SACC Helpline (6779 0282) will be inactive, and staff will not be responding to emails.

SACC will reopen on Tuesday, 2 May 2023, after the Labour Day holiday. Emails will be answered from 2 May onwards (please allow up to five working days for response to emails sent during the closure).

Both our Women’s Helpline (1800 777 5555) and our Workplace Harassment and Discrimination Advisory Helpline (6777 0318) will remain fully operational during this time.

If you have experienced sexual assault within the last 72 hours, you may refer to this page for suggested actions, or consider other resources:

• Call the National Anti-Violence Helpline at 1800 777 0000. They operate 24/7 and will be able to provide support for any violence you are facing.
• For emergencies, please call 999 for the police.
• Call 1767 for the Samaritans of Singapore (SOS) if you have thoughts of hurting yourself, including thoughts of suicide.

We seek your kind understanding and patience during this period.
