特奧家庭支持網旨在啟發家長對智障人士的社交以至全面發展的關注,透過這個平台讓他們有機會參與香港特殊奧運會不同的比賽與活動,互相分享和交流。運動員於海外比賽時,家庭支持網的家長亦會組成打氣團親赴海外觀賽,更會組成歡迎隊伍在機場迎接運動員凱旋歸來。為鼓勵更多家長的參與,家庭支持網除舉辦本地講座外,亦會派員參與國際家長會議,加強家長對特奧理念的了解及與海外成員交流心得。

過去數年,家庭支持網均有舉辦家庭健康論壇,為智障運動員及家長提供健康訊息及免費健康篩查服務,並鼓勵他們多做健體運動。

 

Special Olympics Family Network aims to raise the awareness of parents towards the social and all-round development of people with intellectual disabilities. Parents have the opportunity to participate and share in various sports events and activities organized by Special Olympics Hong Kongthrough this platform. They will also form cheering teams to support athletes while they are competing overseas and greeting parties will also be organized to welcome the triumphant return of the Hong Kong Delegation at the airport. To encourage more participation, both local and international seminars are held by Family Network regularly to help parents better understand the mission and belief of Special Olympics, as well as giving them the opportunity to exchange their experiences with overseas members.

Family Health Forum was organized in the past few years providing health information and free health screening services to athletes with intellectual disabilities and parents and encourage them to do more fitness exercise.
