Potential participants are children studying or living in the five selected districts, namely Sham Shui Po, Yuen Long, Tuen Mun, Sha Tin and Kowloon City. Data including children\'s health and psychosocial conditions, and family demographics will be collected. In addition, subjects will receive on-site assessments on general health and development. Medical and health related events of subjects will be tracked through the existing health care system. Subjects will receive health promotion services and/or lifestyle modification programmes according to their needs.
