Our Initiatives Tech-And-GO! Industry Digital Plan for Social Services

IDPSS Web Banner

The Industry Digital Plan for Social Services (IDPSS) was developed by the National Council of Social Service (NCSS), in consultation with the Ministry of Social and Family Development, the IDPSS Advisory Panel and many other private, public and social service sector professionals. It aims to provide systematic guidance on how Social Service Agencies (SSAs) can assess and accelerate their digitalisation depending on their needs and digital readiness.
