Social Problem

  • Due to their caregiving roles in the family and limited knowledge, underprivileged women are unable to take on full-time jobs with long working hours, making it difficult for them to earn income.
  • Insufficient support for second-tier SEN children, coupled with the unaffordability of training in the market, causes them to miss out on the golden period of intervention and hampers their recovery progress.
  • The general public holds biases against SEN children, placing immense pressure on their caregivers.

Social Innovation

  • By combining two beneficiary groups, the project creates job opportunities with flexible working hours for underprivileged women and increases their income, also provides support for SEN children and their caregivers.
  • The project utilizes mindfulness activities to assist the beneficiaries in improving emotional management and relieving stress.

Expected Social Impact

  • Providing mindfulness training for SEN children to 20 women from low-income families.
  • The trained women will assist in leading mindfulness activities for SEN children and their caregivers, thereby increasing their job opportunities.
  • 80 SEN children and 40 caregivers will participate in the mindfulness activities.
  • Organizing community sharing sessions to raise public awareness of SEN children.
