Services for Street Sleepers

Introduction

Subvented non-governmental organisations operate three Integrated Services Teams for Street Sleepers (ISTs) in Hong Kong to conduct day and late-night outreach visits for proactively reaching out to street sleepers and understanding their reasons for street sleeping. ISTs render integrated services according to the actual needs of street sleepers and their willingness to receive services.  These services, including counseling, service referral, short-term accommodation and application for financial assistance, etc., are provided to address the urgent welfare needs of street sleepers, thereby helping them live off the streets and reintegrate into the community.
