Singapore Prison Service (SPS) is one of the 11 Agencies under the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA). SPS contributes to MHA’s Vision of being ‘A Trusted Home Team, A Safe and Secure Singapore’ through the secure custody and rehabilitation of offenders.
SPS staff, who are known as Captains of Lives (COLs), are highly engaged and work in an organisation recognised as one of Singapore’s Best Employers. SPS’s tagline: ‘Rehab, Renew, Restart’ emphasises our commitment to rehabilitate offenders who desire to change, renew and restart their lives for the better, with the support of the community.
As Captains of Lives, we inspire everyone, at every chance, towards a society without re-offending.
As a correctional agency, we enforce secure custody of offenders and rehabilitate them, for a safe Singapore.
Our Captains of Lives enforce the secure custody of inmates and provide opportunities for them to rehabilitate to become better individuals. With the support from our community partners and volunteers, we also provide support to inmates’ families and facilitate the inmates’ reintegration into society.
We are guided by a set of core values - Synergy, Vigilance, Integrity and Care (SVIC).
