Integration Brings Bountiful Joy in Work

Founded in 1966, Kwun Tong Methodist Social Service is an NGO dedicated to serving the community in Kwun Tong, targeting children and responding to the social needs of children and adolescents living in poverty, disadvantaged families and elderly living alone. Running for the second year, the project continues to connect Special Education Needs (SEN) youth and seniors with dementia to promote an inter-generational community. It will provide a series of career planning workshops, life and technical skills training and internship to SEN youth and allow them to put theory into practice and aims to increase their employment opportunities in the future. By leveraging the characteristics of SEN youth, they will serve seniors with dementia through activities such as microfilm, DIY market and carnival for elderly, targeting to spice up seniors’ lives and lessen the adverse impact of the syndrome.
