Our gap, our focus
Connection Over Correction
Neurodivergent girls’ needs can be easy to miss. Some girls mask their differences to fit in; being quiet, sociable or academically capable does not necessarily mean a girl feels supported. We start with her own experience to understand what growing up feels like for her.
Petal - Girls Club is Brown Rice Livelihood Foundation’s community programme in Hong Kong. Girls aged 15–25 with ADHD or autism (ASD), and girls exploring their own ways of thinking, feeling and learning, are welcome to enquire. Our strengths-based approach brings together practical life skills, mentor support and peer connection to help girls build identity and express their needs. Families can also enquire about our professional assessment and counselling support.
"Every petal is unique. Identity is the root, community is the soil, connection is the light. Together, we empower growth — this is where the bloom begins."
