Shamshuipo Central Happy Teens Club

 

Background

As early as the 1960s, our Lei Cheng Uk Friendly Centre provided children and youth service at Lei Cheng Uk Estate and So Uk Estate. In 1995, Lei Cheng Uk Friendly Centre was integrated with school social service and outreaching youth service, forming the Lei Cheng Uk and So Uk Integrated Team. In 2000, we started to provide supportive service for young night drifters. In 2003, all our Integrated Teams were restructured and Lei Cheng Uk and So Uk Integrated Team was named Shamshuipo (Central) Integrated Children and Youth Service which was renamed Shamshuipo Central Happy Teens Club in 2004.

 

 

Service Objectives

We concern the holistic development of children and youth and particularly care for the disadvantaged and the neglected teenagers. We assist them to become happy, mature, responsible, and contributive members of the society.

 

 

Service Goals

  • Advocating for the welfare of young people and creating an enabling environment for them.
