​Probation is a  community-based rehabilitation programme that aims to bring about positive changes in offenders through targeted interventions and working with the families.s

​The Children and Young Persons' Act states that a juvenile is a male or female person who is 7 years or above and below 16 years.

MSF Youth Homes cater to juveniles who are at risk, or have gotten into trouble with the law, but whose behaviour and circumstances render community-based options inappropriate or unsuitable.

The MSF Youth Homes (i.e. Singapore Boys’ Home and Singapore Girls’ Home) function as a Place of Detention and a Juvenile Rehabilitation Centre for youths who are in conflict with the law, as well as a Place of Safety for youths who are beyond parental control or in need of care and protection.

​The programme helps such youths make a fresh start in life through a series of individual counselling, group work and family counselling session.

The Guidance Programme is a pre-Court diversionary programme for youth offenders who have committed minor offences.
