Position Description

Initiated and funded by The Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust, this five-year foster care project (“Track Two”) aims to support approximately 1,160 children and youth (C&Y) in Ordinary Foster Care placements, along with 1,000 foster families and hundreds of biological families. The initiative focuses on strengthening families, enhancing developmental trajectories, and engaging communities through interventions to fill critical service gaps and drive systemic improvements.

- Family Engagement Programme: Support relationship-building and engagement for C&Y.
- Age-Out Support Programme: Guide and support youth through independence planning, life skills coaching, and community connection.
Individualized Development Plan (“IDPs”) & Progress Monitoring: Facilitate C&Y in co-developing IDPs based on their assessed needs, strengths, and aspirations, while engaging significant others to support a C&Y-centric implementation approach.
Mobilizing Community Resources and Expanding Social Capital: Utilize the Social Capital Platform (“SCP”) and local Community Opportunity Networks to connect C&Y and families with resources, activities, volunteers, and peer support.
Facilitate structured transition planning processes for C&Y moving between different care arrangements or developmental stages within the Project continuum.
Knowledge and practical skills in working with biological families, particularly in supporting family reunification.
Volunteer & Peer Support Coordination
- Facilitate community connections and mobilize resources to build sustainable support networks and enhance the Project’s impact.
- Coordinate and monitor volunteer mentor programmes, including matching and providing mentors with ongoing support to help establish quality mentor-mentee relationships.
Coaching & Capacity Building
- Provide professional guidance to foster and biological families, promoting a strengths-based, developmental approach.
- Support the upskilling and engagement of foster parents in collaboration with operator training pathways.
Stay updated on the latest research, best practices, and emerging trends in C&Y development, and actively participate in training and capacity-building programmes and the community of practice to consolidate practice wisdom and develop evidence-based intervention models.
Actively seek and establish connections with diverse resources, including community organizations, businesses, and stakeholders etc.
Proactively engage with potential partners to develop relationships that strengthen our network and enhance services for beneficiaries.
Provide professional coaching and guidance to foster families, biological families, and community partners from positive developmental trajectory principles and approaches.
Strengthen multi-disciplinary collaboration and coordinate with referring workers, foster care workers, and community resource partners to ensure holistic service delivery.
