For the celebration of our 30th Anniversary, we have successfully held our “Family Support Network Forum for people with intellectual disabilities in Asia” from May 30th to June 1st, 2017 at the Macau Sands Cotai Center.  We had proudly invited experts and families of people with intellectual disabilities from different cities & countries in Asia, including a special guest speaker, Cherish Aperocho, a youth leader from the Special Olympics Asia Pacific to share experiences, strategies on promoting the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. Our MSO family forums have been held for 10 consecutive years. This year, our theme was on “Social Inclusion without Discrimination” and the topics of the forum had even covered the issues on special education needs, sports and health, the Supported employment and the double aging for the people with intellectual disabilities in Asia.  We were grateful to have provided another opportunity for families of people with intellectual disabilities from the Chinese communities all over Asia gathering together here to exchange their experiences & to learn from each other in the event.  As we strongly believed, the forum had greatly promoted the support, concern, love, acceptance & awareness from the public.  The forum was a great success with all the work & efforts from our Macau families of people with intellectual disabilities.

 

On the topic of “Social Inclusion Without Discrimination”: We had invited Marcus Chiu, an expert and a researcher who has been studying the situation of the disabled in Asia (Marcus had taught in Hong Kong Universities & Colleges, and the National University of Singapore) and families of Special Olympics service users to do their sharing on the topic.  Professor Chiu had reviewed us his experiences in doing researches in Hong Kong and Singapore.  He was pleased to give his professional recommendations to parents & families on facing emotional and difficult issues for families of people with disabilities.

《特奧30週年系列活動 社區推廣 融意音樂會》

主禮嘉賓進行啟動儀式澳門特殊奧運會《30週年系列活動 社區推廣 融意音樂會》由澳門無彊界青年協會、社會工作局、推廣聯合國殘疾人士權利公約計劃及民政總署支持之下,可口可樂公司贊助,活動已於2017年5月28日下午兩點到五點假塔石廣場舉辦,是次活動是特奧30週年系列活動的啟動儀式。本會自1987年正式成立而來,除了對智障人士的體育訓練、職業復康、特教支援及社區支援服務的發展外,也著重培養智障人士的文化藝術方面的發展,特辦此“融意音樂分享會”,歌曲由本會的服務使用者與讚娛樂旗下澳門歌手及聖家學生共同錄製名為《共融》的唱片,共收錄5首本地原創歌曲。歌曲內容都是較為正面及帶出深層的社會教育意義,希望以音樂作為橋樑來推廣社會共融及感謝政府各部門及社會各界人士對智障人士一直的支持及鼓勵。

In the beautiful afternoon of May 28th 2017, the Macau Special Olympics (MSO) “30th Anniversary Series: Community Promotion—UNIFY Concert" was successfully held at the Tap Seac Plaza.  This concert was fully supported by the Macao Borderless Youth Association, Social Welfare Bureau, and Project of promoting the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, Civic and Municipal Affairs Bureau (IACM) and was sponsored by the Coca-Cola Company.  Officially, we had held the Kickoff Ceremony for our Macau Special Olympics 30th Anniversary Celebration. Since the establishment in 1987, our organization has not only provided services on sports trainings, occupational rehabilitation, special education supports and community supports, but have even put our efforts on fostering the development of arts and culture for the people with intellectual disabilities (ID). That is the reason why we have chosen to hold our Anniversary Kickoff Ceremony with the UNIFY concert sharing & showing the talents of our ID in Macau.  All 5 songs of our “UNIFY” album are recorded & originally produced by our MSO service users, Macau local singers from the Like Entertainment & Productions Co. Ltd. and the students kindly from Escola da Sagrada Familia.  The lyrics of the songs are very positive with deep sense of social educational bringing.  We are expecting to take music as a platform promoting the social inclusion as well as showing our gratitude towards the Macau SAR government departments and the whole community for all your supports and encouragements for the people with intellectual disabilities.

系列活動主題為“如意”,「攜手共創三十載 苦盡甘來‧如意」,“如意”對華人來說具有多重的意義。“如意“在傳統中國文化代表喜慶、吉祥,正正切合本會成立30週年的大喜日子;如意”存在著不同的形態,是一個千變萬化的形象,就像本會的服務一樣,覆蓋不同的範疇,包括體育活動、職業復康、特殊教育及社區支援等;“如意”亦是一個不求人的工具,本會期望將來本會的服務使用者可以自力更生,提升自我的社區生活。“‧如意”指在澳門社會經濟高速發展的同時,值得我們深思的是殘疾人士的生活又是否真的如意?社會大眾是否真的如我們所想的接納及包容他們?

RUYI (Chinese: 如意; Literally: “as desired; as [you] wish") is the theme for our MSO 30th Anniversary Series events.  Our slogan「攜手共創三十載 苦盡甘來‧如意」means “To join Hands in overcoming 30 years of hardships Wishing for Better…..?!".  There are a few definitions of “RUYI “in Chinese.  RUYI in the Chinese traditional culture on behalf of festive, auspicious, is precisely showing the happiness in celebrating our 30th anniversary.  Its various forms & images are just like the way our MSO services are.  We have not only provided sports activities to our service users, but we have even concerned & extended our service coverage to offering occupational rehabilitation, special education and community supports to all of them.  “ RUYI” in another term means a self-help tool (不求人)in Chinese. We hope that our service users will be able to improve themselves and be independent enough to enjoy their lives in the community.  ‧RUYI (“How to be as desired”) is like a question & a concern on whether the lives of people with intellectual disabilities are really as good as they have desired and deserved in the rapid change of Macau social and economic development all these years along?  Is the community really as we think for spreading awareness and acceptance well enough for the people with intellectual disabilities.

亞太區特奧會青年領袖Cherish Aperocho分享心得

30週年系列“亞洲區特奧家長論壇暨分享會”於5月30日至6月1日假金沙城中心舉行,除來自兩岸四地及亞太區的智障人士家長及專家參與外,本會更邀請到來自亞太區特殊奧運會青年領袖Cherish Aperocho來分享經驗、策略及推廣《殘疾人士權利公約》。本會的家長論壇暨分享會已連續舉辦了十年,今年的議題更延伸到智障人士的融合教育、運動與健康、輔助就業形式及雙重老化等,更重要的是相關活動由澳門家長參與策劃工作。藉由此活動讓各地智障人士家長互相交流學習,並得到社會大眾更多的支持及鼓勵。

For the celebration of our 30th Anniversary, we were pleased to hold our “Family Support Network Forum for People with Intellectual Disabilities in Asia” for 3 days from May30th to June 1st, 2017 at the Sands Cotai Center.  We had invited experts and families of people with intellectual disabilities from different countries & cities in Asia, including a special guest speaker, Cherish Aperocho, a youth leader from the Special Olympics Asia Pacific to share experiences, strategies on promoting the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities.

澳門特殊奧運會三十周年系列活動─亞洲區特奧家長論壇暨分享會

本會一直努力推行家長的工作,本會成立超過十年的《家長支援網絡》主要是支援家長的情緒、提升家長對自身權益意識的提高,家長的參與是重要的一環,因為現代的社會服務除了講求專業,高效,同時也強調持份者的參與,正正因為智障社群的不同持份者參與、互動,才令復康服務不斷向前發展。家長是讓有特殊教育需要學生/智障人士健康成長的重要角色,澳門特奧會希望可以讓家長們更自強、更助己助人、更多參與社區、更堅強更開心地對面生活,故冀透過是次論壇暨分享會能讓家長們有更多機會互相交流,了解其他不同地方在推動殘疾人工作方面的經驗及分享。希望日後能夠加強互相交流的機會,吸取更多不同地區的經驗。

於5月30、31日假金沙城中心四樓敦煌宴會廳舉辦的“亞洲區特奧家長論壇暨分享會”,邀請到亞洲不同地區的家長及菲律賓的青年伙伴一齊來澳分享,互相交流。主題有“探討消除歧視達至社會共融”、“運動與健康”、“就業與生活”,讓不同地區的家長們分享及討論。

是次“亞洲區特奧家長論壇暨分享會”得到中國智力殘疾人及親友協會的支持,幫忙聯絡國內不同地區的家長來澳參與,希望日後本會能有更多機會與中殘聯及中智協交流殘疾人士事業的發展。另外亦多謝社工局的資助,金沙中國有限公司贊助場地,使得活動能夠順利進行。適逢澳門特奧會30週年,本年度的主題是“攜手共創三十載 苦盡甘來‧如意”,我們希望借由不同地區的家長之間的交流及互相分享的經驗,再設計更多不同創新的服務或加入不同的想法,為本會的服務使用者提供更適切、更如意的服務。

副理事長施達明致詞時稱,該會一直以“全人”作為服務理念,為有特殊教育需要人士提供服務,積極推動社區教育,提升大眾對他們的認識,從而接納他們。特奧會顧問趙雨龍博士表示,社會對殘障人士的文明程度仍在發展中,當中存在不被理解、偏見等,不僅使殘障人士難以融入社會,也令照顧者缺乏支持與尊重,出現各方面精神壓力。期望社會能多發揚善心愛心,主動關愛和體諒殘障人士及照顧者。他認為亞洲地區提供殘障人士的院舍服務質素相對偏低,輪候時間長,建議各地政府適度優化,尤其適當監管該類院舍。澳門方面,亦希望在正規教育中加入殘障人士知識,藉此提高社會接納殘障人士的程度。

活動於論壇後亦組織了參加者及本地家長們參觀石排灣的社區服務中心,增加他們對各社會服務的了解,參觀單位有(排名不分先後):澳門循道衛理聯合教會社會服務處灣晴居、澳門街坊會聯合總會石排灣家庭及社區綜合服務中心、澳門婦女聯合總會樂頤長者日間中心、澳門特殊奧運會毅進綜合服務中心等。

澳門特殊奧運會三十週年系列活動—兒童發展關注日

32941493576116484

澳門特殊奧運會主辦的“二○一七兒童發展關注日”系列活動昨啟動,現場設攤位遊戲和舞台表演外,同場還向逾百名三至六歲幼兒提供諮詢服務。

特奧會執行總監蕭宇康認為,政府可考慮先引入“半支援性”的助理人員,由物理治療師、職業治療師等作為組長,引領助理人員處理個案,相信有助紓緩現時人資壓力和縮減個案輪候時間,值得思考。

促關注兒童發展

活動開幕式昨日下午三時假祐漢公園舉行,教青局教育心理輔導暨特殊教育中心主任周佩玲、澳門基金會行政委員會委員何桂鈴、衛生局兒童綜合評估中心主任戴華浩、社工局康復服務處長鄧詠詩、澳門中華教育會副理事長王國英、澳門天主教學校聯會理事胡漢賢,特殊奧運會顧問江慧心、執行總監蕭宇康、理事陳汝和,以及各學校代表出席。

蕭宇康表示,幼兒語言發展遲緩或過度活躍等行為,未必可單靠治療服務診斷出來,均需要一段時間的臨床觀察,甚至直至幼兒發生問題方知道,期望藉着舉辦系列活動喚醒居民,尤其是家長加強關注幼兒的身心和智力健康發展,及早為幼兒提供適切的支援服務。

支援專業治療師

他更認為,在現時物理治療師等人資仍緊張的環境下,儘管可保持高素質的服務水平,惟個案輪候時間過長,仍讓部分個案無法及時獲得支援,“追求素質的同時,但一千個得一百個得到服務,對其餘九百個又係咪公平?”建議政府可考慮參考鄰近地區做法,在未有足夠治療師應付需求前,可先引入“半支援性”的助理人員,即“物理治療師助理”、“職業治療師助理”,由治療師引領一組人處理個案,待業界水平提升,增加治療師數量後,即可紓緩機構人資緊張壓力,縮減個案輪候時間,讓更多個案及早獲得適切服務。

為提升家長了解和認識子女發展,特奧會於本月十四日舉辦家居訓練講座,包括語言、職業和物理治療的範疇,讓家長在家中更好掌握與子女的訓練機會,提高子女溝通能力,詳情可瀏覽該會臉書專頁。
