Consultation

Please consult with us if you have any inquiries pertaining to work situations or achieving a more independent livelihood by e-mail, telephone, facsimile or direct conversation. We co-operate with other welfare organizations, medical/rehabilitation organizations, administrative organs, NPOs and commercial companies.

Prop Station has an e-mail consultation facility to complement the above. For those challenged who have difficulty in going out, e-mail has proved highly useful for all types of communication and can open up channels towards a greater level of participation in society. Those working from home may benefit from this mode of communication in other ways, as well as use it for purely consultation purposes.

In using e-mail, you do not have to venture out to see social workers. You can send a message putting forth your anxieties or problems without worrying about factors such as distance or time. For those challenged who need the assistance of others to talk on the telephone, it may be better to write, fax or contact a social worker; e-mail is only a convenient tool, after all, to ensure confidentiality.

Prop Station can respond immediately to e-mails of an urgent nature. E-mail has enabled us to communicate with the totally blind and the hearing impaired without having to resort to Braille or sign language. Recently, personal computers have become easier to operate and some computers allow users to send and receive e-mails with the simplest of operations, rather like word processors. E-mail may offer the first step for the challenged to express themselves and, ultimately, unlock their full potential.

We have consulted not only with the challenged but also with their families, voluntary assistants, staff at medical/educational establishments, those in charge of personnel at companies as well as staff at welfare offices, employment security offices and other administrative organs.

Finally, Prop Station regards the e-mail consultation service as one of our main activities and hopes more and more people will utilize it in the future. We most heartily welcome your visit and are ready and waiting to take your telephone calls or fax transmissions.
