A podcast update and a call for research help

It's been more than 16 months since I first launched and produced this socialservice.sg podcast, and more than 80 episodes later I've been thinking a lot more about updating the format and perhaps reaching an even wider community of listeners and readers. The traditional interview format where I invite guests to speak to their initiatives, projects, or organisations still has some appeal, and I think there is some value in occasionally documenting important research reports or highlighting community endeavours. Get in touch with me on any of those three favours in the episode!

Also, I am currently working on a research survey involving low-income single-parent households with an adolescent aged 13 to 17. We want to better understand their social capital and well-being. The study is funded by the Ministry of Social and Family Development under the Social and Family Research Fund. If you know of single-parents with at least one 13- to 17-year-old adolescent who may be interested or if you know of agencies or organisations, please also get in touch with me!
