Who Are We?

A bunch of highly energetic, fun-loving folks, mostly from Hong Kong, comprised of special education professionals, therapists, a counselor and volunteers.

When and Where Did We Go?
April 7-12, 2007. One day in International China Concern’s Hengyang Project and the rest of the time in the Changsha Project.

What We Did

• Built relationship with local staff with the aim of supporting them in the future in special education, therapy and counseling
• Offered local staff practical suggestions, feedback and support related to special education, occupational therapy, speech therapy and counseling
• Led classes as well as circle times with the ‘aiyi’s’ (aunties or carers) during one-on-one time with the kids

Highlights
There are just too many to share, but here are a few:

• Meeting the many wonderful people who are serving as His ‘hands and feet’
• Time with the kids! Laughing, playing, hugging, kissing
• For some, seeing their sponsored child for the first time

What Next ?
In a nutshell, the team is excited about what is happening in the projects and enthusiastic about supporting International China Concern from Hong Kong! We will meet again in Hong Kong and consider how to provide ongoing support to the ICC staff.
