Family members meet together inside a welcoming home.

Common ways support is delivered

  • Information and service guidance

    Staff may help families understand options, make enquiries or prepare for conversations with schools and service providers.

  • Family or case support

    Some organisations offer individual or family conversations, social work support or referrals to other services.

  • Family activities and groups

    Programmes may include workshops, shared activities or support groups; ask who can join and what the group is for.

A guide to the process

What the process may involve

  1. 1Clarify whether you need information, case support, counselling or peer connection.
  2. 2Ask who can take part, what is confidential and how information is recorded.
  3. 3Confirm language, referral, fees and how the organisation responds to needs outside its scope.

Time and commitment

Family support may be a brief enquiry, a series of meetings or an ongoing service; there is no shared schedule. Ask how the service decides follow-up and whether families can return later.

Hong Kong service pathways

SWD Integrated Family Service Centres and Integrated Services Centres provide general family services; families can approach the centre covering their residential area. Disability-related Parents/Relatives Resource Centres and District Support Centres have a more specific support remit. Check the centre's current scope and arrangements.

How it differs from related support

Family support is broader than parent training and may not include clinical care. Ask the organisation which professional or team will respond to your needs.

Points to consider

  • Ask whether the service is information, case support, counselling or peer connection.
  • Clarify who can participate and what information is kept confidential.

Questions to ask a provider

  • Can I speak with someone before joining a programme?
  • Are services available in my preferred language?
  • Is there a cost or referral requirement?

Frequently asked questions

How can I check Family Support listing details?

Review the listed source, then contact the provider to confirm its current address, services, fees and capacity.

Do I need a referral or meet specific eligibility rules?

Requirements depend on the service and funding scheme. Confirm assessment, referral documentation, age and other eligibility criteria with the provider or administering public body.

What should I do if information is incorrect or out of date?

Confirm the current details with the provider, then use the “Suggest a correction” link on its profile to submit a verifiable update for review.
