- M. Social Work
- Registered Social Worker
Joseph has been blessed with a 36-year career as a social worker. He retired in March 2018 from active practice as senior clinical social work supervisor at The Salvation Army Vancouver Community and Family Services.
Seasoned by 28 years of social work practice in Greater Vancouver and informed by his Christian faith, he has developed a passionate burden of heart at raising young Canadians of Chinese heritage. Joseph seeks post-retirement involvement in social ministries that impact the growth and development of younger generations. Joseph holds a MSW degree and is a registered social worker, RSW, (2019) at BC College of Social Workers.
Joseph is married to his `better-half’, Connie. Together, they raised three sons in Canada and now have the joy of sharing the love of three young adults and a daughter-in-law. Joseph enjoys hiking, biking, browsing youtube and listening to classic Christian hymns, such as `Rock of Ages’ and nostalgic hits of the 60s/70s, like `The Young Ones’ by Cliff Richard.
Before his retirement from the position of Centre Director of CCM, Kelly was Chief Operating Officer of SUCCESS. He has close to 40 years of combined experience in social work, counselling, personnel management and administration.
Upon graduation from the Social Work Dept. of the Chinese University of Hong Kong, Kelly joined HSBC as a personnel officer in 1979. Led by a strong passion in human service, he left the bank and became a social worker at St. James Settlement. He joined Hong Kong Polytechnic as a student counsellor in 1986. In 1991, Kelly moved to Vancouver and obtained a Master of social work from the University of British Columbia. From 1992 to 2011, he was the program director of Family and Youth Services of SUCCESS before his promotion to Chief Operating Officer. He began his career as a social service consultant in 2014 and joined CCM as a Centre Director until his retirement at the end of 2019.
During the past years, Kelly has provided field supervision to many social work/counselling psychology students from both local and overseas universities. He is currently a peer reviewer of the Council on Accreditation (COA) helping social service organizations in to meet best practice standards.
