We concern the service gap and needs of Ethnically Diverse Group (ED) on drug treatment and rehabilitation support. From April 2013, we have been sponsored by Beat Drugs Fund to support the community-based treatment and rehabilitation support service for ethnically diverse groups. With the adoption of PERMA+ model, the ED drug abusers, rehabilitates and their family members build their wellbeing through various programmes in this project in order to increase their treatment motivation, strengthen their rehabilitation process and improve their family relationship.
