To facilitate the exchange of service experience and practice wisdom within the sector, the Council has been encouraging the development of good practice. Hence, a series of thematic sharing sessions on good practice have been held in the past two years. This year, in view of the rising concern on practice approaches for partnership and social inclusion, the Specialized Committee on Family and Community Service has the honor of inviting several service providers to share their practice wisdom with the sector. The Council is now inviting the active participation of you and your fellow colleagues in these sessions, so as to promote practice sharing for enhancing service quality.

Enclosed herewith are the programme schedule and enrolment form for your reference and use. Kindly please complete and return the enrolment form to us on or before 15 March 2005 by fax at 2866-0863.
