About

Description
Branches of Hope, founded in 2012, is a registered tax-exempt charity working to restore dignity, justice and hope to the marginalised and vulnerable in Hong Kong. It is dedicated to supporting refugees, asylum-seekers (non-refoulement claimants) and those who have experienced human trafficking and exploitation through Care, Empowerment and Social Awareness. Branches of Hope achieves this through its two service programmes: the Refugee Opportunity and Development (ROAD) programme and the Stop Trafficking of People (STOP) programme. ROAD supports over 1000 refugees and asylum seekers, mainly from African and Southeast Asian nations. ROAD’s mission is to equip, educate and empower individuals and families to become positive and contributing members of our community. STOP aims to end human trafficking in and through Hong Kong. STOP provides protection support to those who experienced human trafficking and exploitation, educates the vulnerable community to prevent human trafficking from happening, and conducts research to build capacity for responding to these issues.
For over 25 years FOCUS has been a trusted resource for Hong Kong parents, educators and medical professionals seeking to learn how to better support the academic and social lives of children with mainstream learning differences. FOCUS aims to improve educational and life outcomes of children with AD/HD and SpLD by expanding understanding and raising awareness of what it means to have a mind that learns differently Our mission is is to improve the education of mainstream students who are challenged by Specific Learning Difficulties (SpLD) and Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (AD/HD) by providing accurate evidence-based information, practical strategies and support to parents and professionals in education and healthcare and by improving understanding of how learning differences impact youth both emotionally and academically.
