The Council has launched the 3-year “Jockey Club Project IDEAL” funded by the Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust since September 2020. Through collaboration with Department of Social Work, The Chinese Univerity of Hong Kong, the project aims to bring out the concept of “Parent Empowerment” and “Transformative Learning Approach” in the sector and larger community. Through the series of Thematic Community Programs delivered by participating NGOs, it is expected the conventional imagination on parent education would be changed.

“Jockey Club Project IDEAL” consists of five key elements: Inspiration, Development, Empowerment, Autonomy, and Transformative Learning. By experiencing these five elements, parents could be transformed and empowered in the aspect of parenting practice. The annual theme of this year is “Explore and Empower Parents’ Potential“. It is hoped that through the Thematic Community Programs, parents could explore their potential and empower themselves to look for how to accompany with their children to grow up.

We are now recruiting interested NGOs to conduct “Thematic Community Programs” in echo with the aforementioned annual theme. Program subsidies would be allocated to eligible programs in order to cover the program expenses. All interested members are cordially invited to attend the briefing session at 2:30 pm via Zoom Platform on December 13, 2021 (Monday). (The briefing will conduct in Cantonese.)
