About

Description
Formerly part of Free to Run since 2015, RUN came to life as a sole entity in Hong Kong in 2018. Some people said we were mad to call an NGO that rehabilitates refugees RUN. It made them think negatively of ‘flight’ and ‘running away’, not of the positive empowerment our participants experience through our programmes. But we cannot dispute that reality of flight; unfortunately, that is an undeniable part of our participants’ and our story. OUR MISSION We rehabilitate vulnerable refugees through sports, education, and beyond OUR VISION WE ASPIRE TO CREATE A RESILIENT AND EMPOWERED REFUGEE COMMUNITY
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.
