When children play together, they build memories that last forever. Hence, the CIA initiative had evolved to include all forms of play.
Children in Action (CIA) was an initiative originally initiated by the National Council of Social Service (NCSS). Launched in August 2015, CIA brought children with and without special needs to play together at inclusive playgrounds. These play activities aimed to foster greater awareness and acceptance of children with special needs from a young age. In collaboration with the Muscular Dystrophy A
ssociation (Singapore), MDAS, from 1 April 2019 - 31 July 2022, CIA evolved to include all forms of play – beyond the playgrounds. MDAS spearheaded efforts to promote inclusive play among children with different abilities by engaging them in a wide array of play and skill-based activities. Inclusive play is not solely limited to the playgrounds now – instead, it could take place at any suitable venue. We believe that when children play together, they build memories that last forever.
