Rehabilitation of People with a Disability
The rehabilitation services aim to integrate people with a
disability into the community. Hong Kong has about 370 000
individuals with a disability. Services provided by government
departments and non-governmental organisations help such
people to fully develop their physical, mental and social
capabilities. These services are co-ordinated by the
Commissioner for Rehabilitation, who also conducts regular
reviews of the Rehabilitation Programme Plan which projects
the requirements for and identifies shortfalls and overprovision
in rehabilitation services in the following five years.
