Background
Since the 60s, our centre has been providing support to families in need.
In the 80s, society was developing at a rapid speed, led to shifts in demand for services. The service pattern of Caritas changed from providing resources to family counselling, visits and referrals.
In 2003, the Social Service Bureau collaborated with local organisations and launched the Single Parents Support Network Project. This project aimed to provide counselling and support to single-parent families.
In July 2015, services of our centre officially transformed into integrated family service.
