From the perspective of psychology, ‘HOPE’ is not ephemeral emotion or personal expectation; it is the perceived capability to view barriers as challenges to overcome and use their pathways to create new routes to achieve their desired goals.

Hope Stories is the first parent self-guidance book of its kind in Hong Kong. Parents of children with special needs featured in the 13 family stories of the book exemplify how people of high hope steadily accomplish their goals with resilience.

Hope theory suggests that every person can acquire higher levels of hope through learning and practice. Professional guidance included serves to help readers develop their hope skills.
