The vision of SPACES is to work with Singaporeans of all walks of life to draw on often hidden strengths and resources of minority communities. Today SPACES is active through its two branches: Oogachaga Counselling and Support (www.oogachaga.com) and A Nation in Concert (www.anationinconcert.com).

Oogachaga Counselling and Support (OC) is Singapore's largest community based agency that provides counseling and support related to sexuality issues for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and questioning communities as well as those who seek understanding on sexuality and sexual health issues. OC services are supervised by credible professional and run by full time staff and more than 60 active volunteers.

A Nation in Concert (ANIC) is an all inclusive platform for all people to showcase their talents and abilities, embrace diversity, celebrate lives and foster the spirit of sharing and giving. It has organised three fundraising concerts in 2005, 2006 and 2008 and benefited voluntary welfare organisations like Association for Persons with special needs, Handicaps Welfare Association, The Singapore Association for the Deaf and Singapore Association of the Visually Handicapped.
