We deeply believe that women who have personally experienced changes in their family structures are best positioned to empathize with and truly understand the needs of others facing similar plight. Therefore, the core philosophy of this program is grounded in women’s empowerment and mutual support. It seeks to transform the lived experiences of grassroots women into professional helping capacities, and to harness the power of shared journeys to build a sustainable, community-based support network that promotes social inclusion.
Four Key Areas of Professional Training:
The program provides participants with structured group training across four core areas: divorce procedures in Hong Kong and Mainland China, community resources and referral networks (such as child custody and housing arrangements), emotional support and active listening skills, and the psychological needs of children from divorced families. This comprehensive training equips participants with a solid foundation of knowledge and practical understanding.

The program will match and assign assistants to support grassroots women facing family-related challenges such as divorce or separation. Under professional supervision, they will provide flexible and tailored support, including emotional guidance and referrals to appropriate community resources.
