Child Focused Resolution Centre
In 2011, the Child Focused Resolution Centre (CFRC) is gazetted as a Court to provide dedicated mandatory counselling and mediation for divorcing parents to focus on the welfare of their children during legal proceedings. The establishment of the CFRC is an extension of the existing alternative dispute services of the Family Court, namely the Family Resolution Chambers and the Maintenance Mediation Chambers.
Divorce has a profound impact on children. They may be affected in many ways - emotionally, psychologically, physically, academically and financially. The CFRC was created to better safeguard the interests of the children by providing an early conciliatory forum for parents, to assist them in focusing on their children to resolve children related issues, and to empower them with information on co-parenting after divorce.
The CFRC is located at Central Mall (Office Tower), 1 Magazine Road, #04-10/13, Singapore 059567, within walking distance from the Subordinate Courts Complex and Family and Juvenile Court building.

“It was your severed image that grew sweeter,
That floated, wing-stiff, focused in the sun
Along uncertainty and gales of shame
Blown out before I slept. Now you are one
I dare not think alive: only a name
That chimes occasionally, as a belief
Long since embedded in the static past.”
