The Project ‘Empowering SEN Families - Paradigm Shift from Traditional SEN Rehabilitation Service towards Trans-disciplinary Collaboration’ of our Child Rehabilitation Service (CRS) won the Gold Award and the Best Collaborative Award, among the 23 projects in the Asian region, in the Asian Family Summit (AFS) programme - the Best Practices Sharing in Asia - Family Well-Being Project 2024.
Our Project aims to implement a paradigm shift towards a holistic, family-centred and need-based approach in preschool SEN rehabilitation services, facilitate trans-disciplinary collaboration among professionals and parents, and break down traditional siloed practices. By using this method, the Project benefited over 2,900 SEN families yearly and has trained approximately 1,750 professional and quasi-professional experts so far, laying a solid foundation for the paradigm shift.
