The Ebenezer School and Home for the Visually Impaired
The Ebenezer School and Home for the Visually Impaired has been serving the visually impaired community of Hong Kong for over 125 years. Today the school and home is located on a hillside in Pokfulam with beautiful scenery and a quiet and tranquil environment.
Over the decades the facility has expanded to provide comprehensive educational, rehabilitation and recreational training in a residential setting for the visually impaired, intellectually disabled and elderly, plus support services to visually impaired students in secondary, primary and special schools and on-site services providing adequate and timely support for students with moderate and severe visual impairment.

Since the 1980s assistive technology teaching has developed with students using technology to facilitate their learning and Computer Literacy to enhance their skills. The Ebenezer Early Intervention Programme for Visually Impaired Children was launched in 2000, expanding the service to include infants with visual impairment.
