🎉 我們很高興為大家宣佈，高璇博士、陶兆銘教授及Dr. Zhao Yuhan近日發表了題為「Resistance Among Youths With Mental Illnesses in China in the Context of Parent–Child Relationships: The Integration of Modern and Postmodern Perspectives 」的最新論文。📄✨

🔬 研究中訪問了 16 對廣州家庭，發現有精神健康問題的中國青少年，在親子衝突中，不止反抗父母，更反抗社會主流論述，包括強調親密關係的信念、教育論述、刻苦耐受的論述及對苗條的公眾信念，而此亦有可能影響精神健康。🧠💭

恭喜三位！👏👏👏

🎉We are happy to announce that Dr. Gao Xuan, Prof. To Siu Ming, and Dr. Zhao Yuhan have recently published their latest paper titled "Resistance Among Youths With Mental Illnesses in China in the Context of Parent–Child Relationships: The Integration of Modern and Postmodern Perspectives".📄✨

🔬 The study interviewed 16 family pairs in Guangzhou and found that Chinese youths with mental health issues, in the context of parent–child conflicts, not only resisted their parents but also resisted dominant social discourses, including beliefs that emphasize closeness, the discourse of education, the discourse of hardship tolerance, and the public belief in slenderness, which may also affect their mental health.🧠💭

Congratulations to all three! 👏👏👏

小事時猶豫不決，面對大事時又一再拖延，往往只會令自己更焦慮、疲憊。😣⏳
拖延未必單純源於懶惰，很多時是因為缺乏決斷力，令我們難以及早行動。
若能由日常小事開始練習作出選擇，逐步建立決斷能力，便能減少拖延，讓生活變得更有秩序，也更從容。🌱✨

When we hesitate over small things and keep putting off big decisions, it can leave us feeling more anxious and drained. 😣⏳

Procrastination is not always about laziness — more often, it comes from a lack of decisiveness that keeps us from taking action early.

By practicing decision-making in everyday choices, we can gradually build decisiveness, reduce procrastination, and create a life that feels more organized and at ease. 🌱✨

精神復元人士重投社會，面對很大挑戰。

要重新適應生活，更有可能承受來自社會的標籤、誤解同歧視，令復元之路更艱難。

真正的接納不是口講，而是要由理解開始，大眾要從言語、態度及行動上，為每位復元人士創造更包容、更有尊嚴的社會環境。🤝💛🌱

People in mental health recovery face significant challenges when reintegrating into society.

Beyond readjusting to everyday life, they may also encounter stigma, misunderstanding, and discrimination from the wider community, making the recovery journey even more difficult.

Meaningful acceptance goes beyond words. It begins with understanding. The public can help create a more inclusive and dignified social environment for every person in recovery through our language, attitudes, and actions. 🤝💛🌱

當大家還在爭論「用不用 AI」的時候，人工智能已不止一種玩法，而是慢慢走向小型模型、本地運算，甚至已轉變成可自行處理多步驟工作的系統。而在社福界中，我們又可以如何應用在社會工作及其教學上，研究方向又會是怎樣？🤖📚

想知道社福界如何捉緊這波轉變，而不是被技術牽着走。誠邀你參加由 Brian E. Perron 教授主講的研討會，一同探討如何為社工專業，建構更切合實際需要的 AI 方案。🎓💡

While the debate over whether we should use AI continues, artificial intelligence is no longer a single thing. It is evolving into small models, local deployment, and agentic systems that can carry out multi-step work autonomously. In social work, what does this mean for practice, teaching, and research?🤖📚

If you are interested in how the social work field can seize this moment of change rather than be driven by technology, join us for a seminar by Professor Brian E. Perron as we explore how to build AI solutions that are more practical and relevant to the profession.🎓💡

SEN孩童的成長路上未必如此順利，但當家庭中的每位成員願意同行、聆聽，一同面對難關，建立了良好溝通、互相接納及彼此支持，慢慢培養出更強的家庭抗逆力，小朋友就更有力量面對成長中的每個挑戰。💛👨‍👩‍👧‍👦🤝🌱✨

A child with SEN may not always have an easy journey, but when every family member chooses to walk together, listen with care, and face challenges as one, strong communication, acceptance, and support can grow. Over time, this builds a more resilient family and gives the child greater strength to overcome every challenge along the way.💛👨‍👩‍👧‍👦🤝🌱✨

社會工作學系在5月8日舉辦構建「在家感」的實踐 — 社福同工專場研討會。🏠助理教授崔佳良分享了在過渡性住宿中，促進「在家感」的研究與實務策略。研討會更特別邀請具有過渡性宿舍居住經驗的復元人士顧問團隊進行現場分享，以第一身視角闡述宿舍中家的感覺對復元歷程的關鍵影響。

約150位社工以實體及線上方式參與，💻🏫 現場每位參加者更獲贈《復元人士「理想之家」畫冊》，透過受訪者的藝術創作，引導大眾進一步理解復元人士對「家」的願景及期盼。🎨📘

The Department of Social Work hosted the practitioner session “Connecting to Home in Transitional Accommodation” on 8 May.🏠 Assistant Professor Prof. Angela Cui Jialiang presented research findings and practical strategies for fostering a sense of “at‑homeness” within transitional accommodation. A lived‑experience advisory team of people who had stayed in transitional hostels was invited to share firsthand perspectives on how a sense of home in these settings plays a crucial role in recovery.

Around 150 social work practitioners joined in person and online; 💻🏫each in‑person attendee received a copy of the Research Drawing Booklet by People with Mental Illness, which uses interviewees’ artwork to help the public better understand their visions and hopes for an ideal home.🎨📘

🌟 跨代共同養育，從來都不只是「祖父母幫手湊孫」如此簡單。更重要的是，父母與祖父母之間能否建立一致的管教方式、清晰的分工，以及真正的互相尊重。👨‍👩‍👧‍👦

當家人之間有共識、彼此理解，小朋友自然更容易在穩定、安心又充滿愛的環境中健康成長。💛🌱

🌟 Intergenerational co-parenting is never just about grandparents helping to look after the grandchildren — it goes so much deeper than that. What truly matters is whether parents and grandparents can build a shared approach to discipline, establish clear roles and responsibilities, and genuinely respect one another. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦

When family members are on the same page and support each other, children are far more likely to thrive in a stable, secure, and loving environment. 💛🌱
