A Voice To Be Heard Ltd (AV2BH) is a Singapore-based non-profit Company Limited by Guarantee established in 2023. We create platforms that amplify lived experience, challenge stigma and strengthen pathways towards recovery, reintegration and meaningful community participation.
Our work centres on the belief that people should not be permanently defined by their past, their struggles, incarceration, addiction or mental health experiences. Through authentic human stories, facilitated conversations, community engagement and collaborative programmes, AV2BH brings lived experience together with professional practice and community perspectives.
### What We Do
AV2BH develops initiatives around four interconnected areas:
**Lived Experience & Storytelling**
Creating safe and purposeful platforms for individuals to share experiences of recovery, resilience and personal transformation.
**Recovery & Reintegration**
Supporting conversations and initiatives that strengthen identity, belonging, family relationships, community acceptance and opportunities beyond incarceration and addiction.
**Stigma Reduction & Public Education**
Using human stories, dialogue and experiential learning to challenge stereotypes surrounding mental health, addiction, incarceration and recovery.
**Community Collaboration**
Working with community organisations, ground-up groups, practitioners and institutional partners to create more inclusive and sustainable responses to recovery and reintegration.
### Our Platforms & Initiatives
Our work has included **The Human Story Book Café**, the **S.A.D. Conversation Series**, **Stories Unscripted**, experiential workshops and community conversations, as well as the **Stories Beyond Stigma Summit 2026** — bringing lived experience, community leadership and professional practice into a shared conversation on recovery and reintegration.
Moving forward, AV2BH is placing greater emphasis on digital storytelling, curated conversations, knowledge sharing and strategic collaborations that allow lived-experience voices to reach wider audiences while creating meaningful social impact.
### Our Purpose
We seek to move the conversation beyond stigma and beyond labels — from simply hearing stories to understanding what helps people recover, rebuild their lives and participate meaningfully in society.
