From workshops for at risk youth to training for teachers and counsellors, every programme is designed with science, delivered with compassion, and measured by impact.

Dr. Justin Lo

HKAPS's prevention education is exemplary. By combining school-based programmes with social media outreach, they effectively reach youth. Their focus on evidence-based messaging and regular evaluation ensures measurable impact. This strategic approach is vital for sustaining low infection rates and empowering communities to take charge of their sexual health.

Dr. Esther Lui

HKAPS provides accessible and confidential testing services that are crucial for early diagnosis. Their mobile testing units and community-based counselling significantly reduce barriers for high-risk groups. This non judgemental, client centred approach encourages regular testing, which is the cornerstone of an effective HIV prevention and treatment cascade.

Dr. Kenneth Tse

HKAPS stands as a premier institution in HIV prevention. Its sustained, multi‑year engagement with marginalised youth, its training of educators and peer counsellors, and its proactive adaptation to emerging trends—such as nightlife interventions—set a gold standard. The Society’s work is not merely responsive but visionary, making it a benchmark for public health NGOs in Hong Kong.

The Hong Kong Aids Prevention Society (HKAPS) is a registered non‑profit charitable organisation in Hong Kong. We operate in full compliance with Hong Kong laws and regulations governing charitable institutions.

All income and expenditure are recorded in detail and maintained by the Secretariat. Financial records are audited annually by a Hong Kong practising certified accountant. Audited financial reports are presented to the Executive Committee and the General Assembly for approval. All members of the governing bodies are prohibited from receiving any remuneration or benefits from the Society.

Any Executive Committee member with a direct or indirect material interest in a transaction, arrangement, or contract with the Society must declare the nature and extent of that interest to other Committee members. Such members are not permitted to vote on the matter and may not be counted in the quorum for that discussion.

Funds are allocated by the Standing Executive Committee based on operational needs and programme priorities. All expenditures must align with the Society's objectives as stated in our constitution. Large expenditures require cheque payments bearing the joint signatures of at least two authorised signatories (Chairperson, Secretary, and Treasurer). A limited amount of cash is retained for minor daily expenses.

All income and assets, however acquired, are used exclusively for promoting the Society's charitable objectives. No income or property may be distributed to any member, officer, or governing body member. Any surplus must be applied solely to charitable purposes within Hong Kong.

Yes. The Executive Committee serves a five‑year term, with members eligible for re‑election. This ensures institutional continuity while allowing for fresh perspectives. The Standing Executive Committee oversees daily operations, ensuring consistent delivery of services regardless of personnel changes.

Programme effectiveness is assessed through participant feedback, attendance records, and observed behavioural outcomes. We continuously review our outreach strategies, workshop content, and educational materials to ensure they remain relevant, evidence‑based, and impactful for our target populations.

Our constitution empowers us to work collaboratively with teachers, youth workers, and community groups to strengthen HIV/AIDS prevention efforts across Hong Kong.

Personal information collected from participants, members, and service users is protected in accordance with Hong Kong's Personal Data (Privacy) Ordinance and is used solely for programme delivery and evaluation purposes.

All staff, peer educators, and volunteers undergo structured training and capacity‑building programmes. Our peer education training scheme equips young people with accurate knowledge and effective communication skills. Regular performance reviews and continuous professional development are embedded in our operational framework.

While our primary focus is on direct education and outreach, we collect and analyse programme data to inform our strategies. We are open to collaborating with academic institutions on research projects that align with our mission of preventing HIV/AIDS and promoting youth sexual health.

Data access requests are considered on a case‑by‑case basis, subject to ethical approval, data protection compliance, and the Society's consent. All data sharing must adhere to strict confidentiality and privacy safeguards.

Proposals should be submitted to the Secretariat in writing. They will be reviewed by the Standing Executive Committee, and if aligned with our mission and resources, may be incorporated into our annual work plan and budget.
