Care for the Street Sleepers @Yau Tsim Mong 愛在街頭 - 探訪油尖旺露宿者服務

[This is a Community Service under Project C - Connect x Community]

A recent study shows that there are more than 1500 homeless people in Hong Kong, around 100 of them are living in Yau Tsim Mong Districts. However, affected by the pandemic, the real figures are much larger than that. 

The Salvation Army Yaumatei Integrated Service for Street Sleepers is a non-governmental organization which reach out to the street sleepers regularly and provide a wide range of welfare services according to their needs. In this community service, volunteers join hands with The Integrated Service for Sleepers Team and visit street sleepers in Yau Ma Tei, Tsim Sha Tsui and Mong Kok Districts. Through the conversation with the street sleepers, you can get an in-depth understanding of their circumstances and at the same time show our care and love.

根據最新統計，香港有超過1500名露宿者，其中大概100名露宿於油尖旺區內，但受疫情影響，實際數目遠遠超過這個數字。

救世軍露宿者綜合服務隊一直於區內主動接觸露宿者，了解其露宿的原因，並按他們的實際需要提供福利服務。科大侍學行將聯同機構招募義工在油尖旺一帶探訪露宿者，通過親身對話，深入了解香港露宿者所面對的困難和挑戰，從而表達我們對其關心和支持。
