PCIT in Hong Kong


History
With ongoing concern for improving parent-child interactions and alleviating the child abuse problem of Hong Kong, Tung Wah Group of Hospitals (TWGHs) began to pioneer PCIT services in 2004. In 2005, TWGHs conducted the "Symposium & Workshop: New Initiatives of Child Abuse Prevention" in Hong Kong with over 200 participants in attendance. Dr. Sheila Eyberg, Dr. Anthony Urquiza and Dr. Nancy Zebell were invited to be trainers for this training. About 20 social workers from TWGHs were trained in PCIT at this workshop. After that, some staff members received advanced PCIT training delivered by Professors Sheila Eyberg, Stephen Boggs, Regina Bussing and Dr. Reesa Donnelly at the University of Florida and received continuous online consultation from Professor Cheryl McNeil from West Virginia University and Professor Robin Gurwitch from Duke University. 
​
Since 2008, with the donation of The Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust, TWGHs has delivered PCIT services in nine service points over the territories. Over the past decade, more than 2,000 families have benefited from PCIT in Hong Kong. 
In 2016, the PCIT services won the Outstanding Award of the Wofoo 3A Project,which aims to give recognition to outstanding initiatives that have advanced an innovative idea, model or paradigm that can improve the quality of life for families and their well-being in the Asian region.
Current Situation
The PCIT services of TWGHs aim to prevent child abuse by improving the parent-child relationship and enhancing parenting competence. PCIT training workshops were also delivered to those working with young children having behavioral difficulties, such as preschool teachers, child residential care workers and foster parents, so as to strengthen their communication skills in relating with children. With the extensive publicity activities, PCIT services were made known to, and are well recognized by, the local social welfare settings and the public. Currently, there are over 15 PCIT practitioners in TWGHs, including 4 Level I Trainers.
