How were the SSSG and CARG developed?
SSSG and CARG were jointly developed by professionals from various sectors such as law enforcement, healthcare, social service and education. They are designed with Singapore’s laws, culture and families in mind. Representatives from these sectors helped create and contextualise the items in SSSG and CARG to include situations that professionals in the sector are most likely to experience. SSSG and CARG are intended to complement rather than replace professional judgement and critical thinking. They do not prohibit a professional from undertaking any course of action he/she believes is appropriate.
