In response to the growing needs of strengthening family and the reform of family service delivery model, we established an integrated family service centre in 2004 which was an incorporation of our former counselling and family life education services. Taking a child-centred, family-focused and community-based approach, we dedicate ourselves to providing "one-stop" integrated family services to support and strengthen individuals and the families in the community.

Service Objectives

• To identfy problems early and intervene accordingly
