We used the Co-Parenting Toolkit about eight months after our separation. By that point we had managed the logistics ourselves for a while and it was causing repeated arguments — not about the children, just about the calendar and who was responsible for what. The two sessions produced a shared system that we have both actually used since. It did not fix anything emotional, which I think it was never supposed to do. It fixed the logistical part, which was the part we needed fixing.

After my mother passed away, we realised that her documents were scattered across three different locations and we were missing some entirely. The Records Consolidation service took four appointments. I appreciated that they were clear from the start about what they would and would not do — they told us on the first day that they could not advise on the estate or tell us what the documents meant legally, and recommended we speak to a solicitor for that. The archive they produced has already saved us time when we needed to locate specific papers.

Our residents' association had been approached informally for help by families going through separations, and we did not know how to respond. The Community Support Circle Programme gave eight of our volunteers a structured way to hold those conversations without overstepping. The referral module was the most important part — our facilitators now know exactly when to say "this is outside what I can help with" and which type of professional to point someone toward. We ran our first circle in May and it went well.

I was sceptical at first that two sessions would be enough, but the scope was very focused — just the calendar and logistics documents, nothing else. My co-parent and I both attended session two to review the final documents, which helped. I would say it is not a solution to every disagreement, but it removed the arguments that were specifically about scheduling and what was packed in the bag. Those particular disputes have basically stopped.

We used the Records Consolidation when my wife and I were separating and needed to establish which documents belonged to which household. The process was methodical and the sessions felt genuinely neutral — Kai Lin did not comment on anything beyond what was on the document itself. The contents page and issuing directory have been useful since, particularly when we had to replace a document that neither of us had remembered to keep. I did not expect to find the service as useful as it turned out to be.

We enrolled our workplace welfare committee in the Community Support Circle Programme. Six of our volunteers completed all three training days. What I valued most was the emphasis on knowing your limits — every module circled back to the referral protocol and what you do when a question is out of scope. The quarterly calls have been useful for the facilitators to debrief without feeling isolated. We are considering a second group of volunteers in the new year.

CASE STUDIES

Three engagements, described in detail


CO-PARENTING TOOLKIT

Two households, one school year

CHALLENGE

A family in Puchong with two children at different schools was managing handovers informally. School events, medical appointments, and extracurricular schedules were handled by text message, leading to repeated miscommunications.

WHAT HAPPENED

Two sessions produced a shared calendar, a written protocol for requesting schedule changes at least 48 hours in advance, separate packing lists for each child, and a contact sheet with school and healthcare contacts both households agreed on.

OUTCOME

Both households reported that the specific category of dispute around scheduling and packing reduced significantly within the first school term. The calendar and protocol remained in use at the six-month follow-up enquiry.

Duration: 2 sessions over 2 weeks

RECORDS CONSOLIDATION

A household archive built from three locations

CHALLENGE

Following a divorce, a Kuala Lumpur household had documents spread across the former family home, a storage unit, and with a relative. Several key documents — including a birth certificate and property tenancy agreement — could not be located.

WHAT HAPPENED

Four appointments gathered, scanned, and named 127 documents across nine categories. The issuing body directory identified the relevant department for replacing each of the three documents that could not be found. All originals were returned at appointment four.

OUTCOME

The client reported that the issuing directory allowed them to replace two of the missing documents within three weeks of the final appointment. The encrypted archive was transferred to a personal USB drive at their request.

Duration: 4 appointments over 5 weeks

COMMUNITY CIRCLE PROGRAMME

A faith community building its own peer support capacity

CHALLENGE

A community organisation in Shah Alam had an existing pastoral network but no structured approach for members seeking support during family transitions. Volunteers were taking on conversations they did not feel equipped for, with no guidance on when to refer.

WHAT HAPPENED

Nine volunteers completed the three training days. The referral protocol was integrated into their existing pastoral procedures. Quarterly supervision calls gave facilitators a regular space to discuss cases (anonymised) with programme staff.

OUTCOME

The organisation ran six peer support circles in the first programme year, with an average of four participants per circle. The committee coordinator reported that the structured referral process reduced facilitator uncertainty about scope significantly.

Duration: 12-month programme
