Call for Volunteers - Hands Together「大手牽小手」離異家庭兒童．大哥哥大姐姐伴行計劃（第十期）*

*The service opportunity requires participants to be proficient in Cantonese.

The HKFWS Family Resource Centre started a program in 2014 that aims to provide support and services to children from divorced families. This program, which is facilitated by "big brothers and sisters" volunteers who have gone through parental divorce themselves, offers monthly gatherings where children can receive encouragement and positivity to help them cope with the significant changes brought about by divorce. 

The program is now open to current students or graduates from tertiary education institutes who have experienced parental divorce and are interested in serving children. Participants are encouraged to share their personal experiences in order to support children facing adversity and provide hope for overcoming difficulties and adapting to changes.

* 義工需能以廣東話與服務使用者溝通

香港家庭福利會持守「以家為本」的理念，致力發展多元服務，為家庭和個人謀福祉，更結集家庭和各界的力量，建立互相關顧的社會。家福中心成立於1988年，乃機構轄下首個提供開放式家庭服務及離異家庭服務的中心，為全港離異家庭提供多元化的支援服務。家福中心自2014年起舉行「大手牽小手」離異家庭兒童．大哥哥大姐姐伴行計劃，由大專院校學生成為大哥哥大姐姐，為離異家庭的兒童提供支援服務。透過小組、月聚、宿營等活動，帶給兒童正面積極的鼓勵與支持，協助兒童適應因父母離異所帶來的生活轉變。

計劃今年將舉行第十期，現招募有志服務離異家庭兒童，並且曾經歷父母離異的大專生成為大哥哥大姐姐。經過培訓，重整面對逆境的經歷，轉化成為陪伴兒童面對家庭變故的能量故事，並與離異家庭兒童作配對，共同參與多元化體驗式活動，陪伴和鼓勵兒童正向成長。
