Hello, it appears that CD services have a primary goal of enhancing informal social support, whereas other welfare services prioritize formal social support.

I'm glad to hear that.

I appreciate your response. It has provided me with a clearer understanding of the CD services available in Hong Kong.

While the primary purpose of CD services revolves around fostering community residents' mutual assistance, they also extend their reach to encompass institutional social services. One such service is the Care and Support Network Team, specifically designed to aid ex-offenders and individuals who have previously dealt with mental health challenges.
