Meet the men helping at-risk dads mend broken families

When it comes to helping ex-offenders get back on their feet, key priorities would include helping them secure a stable income, sharpening their employable skills and paving the way for greater societal acceptance.Another crucial factor that is often overlooked would be to strengthen the family ties that suffer when fathers are placed behind bars, which may not be easily repaired for years even after a jail sentence is complete. That is why the Singapore Prison Service (SPS) works closely with community partners, such as BapaHebat SG, to conduct family programmes for the inmates, helping them rebuild and strengthen their family ties.The organisation's name, BapaHebat SG, means 'awesome father' in Malay. Its two founders are Mohamad Ibrahim, 64, who came out of retirement to run the organisation, and Jamsari Ahmad, 59, who works in information technology.
