About Families for Life Council
The Families for Life (FFL) Council was established by the Ministry of Social and Family Development (MSF) in 2014 and aims to build strong and resilient families. It is led by the FFL Council, and rallies like-minded individuals, families and organisations to strengthen family bonds through events, campaigns, and marriage and parenting programmes.
FFL’s signature initiatives are:
- National Family Week – a pinnacle celebration of the importance of families held every first week of June, with family bonding activities throughout Singapore.
- FFL at Community – localised initiatives that will be rolled out in each of the 24 towns to strengthen family relationships. These include marriage preparation and mentoring, parenting and grandparenting programmes, and parent peer support groups.
- Family Values and engagement – promote the four family values of love, care and concern, commitment, respect to children and their families through the FFL mascot, Becky Bunny, and age-appropriate resources such as songs, stories and games.
