About

Description
Child Parent Relationship Therapy (CPRT) deeply believes the parent-child relationship is very important to children's development and mental health. Through a group format, CPRT allows parents to learn the theory and skills of Child Centered Play Therapy in a mutually supportive atmosphere. In a 30-minute "special playtime" with their children at home each week, parents learn to respond empathically to children's emotions and to set limits for children's inappropriate behavior, thereby enhancing their children's self-discipline, self-confidence and self-image. Vision Teachers, nurses and first-responders all required training, but parents who affect their children's life most often lack training. They just follow in the footsteps of the previous generation or their peers. Their parenting may have an adverse impact on their children. Our ultimate goal and mission are to have every parent in Hong Kong with children between the ages of 2 to 10 receive training on "Parent-Child Relation Therapy", just like parents of newborn learn to breastfeed, bathe and change diapers. Changes in parents can affect a child's life. We especially want to support families from the grassroots, who may have more struggles and yet fewer resources in the midst of their difficulties.
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.
