At Igniteteen, they equip young people to create a better life for themselves through their personal development programmes. Helping to build teens confidence and empowering them with the skills for life which are not taught in schools but are needed to function effectively in an increasingly diverse and demanding global world.

At parentTeen, they particularly work with fathers and father figures, exposing them to strategies that helps mend and build healthy relationship through the seven complex years of teenage hood. To reducing anti-social behaviours and improve stability in the home. The overall outcome is to produce responsible, effective and functional adults who will lead the seven spheres of influence in the society.

All their programmes are run through one to one coaching, group coaching, workshops/seminars.

These seminars bring fathers and their teenagers together - Father and son hangout, father and daughter hangout, father to father hangout etc.. The aim is that fathers are skill in the art of FATHERHOOD and be present in the lives of their children to be able to experience, deep, intimate, healthy and lasting parent-teen relationship.

We partner with other organisations to support them in their parent and teen journey.
