Initiatives for youth independence support in Yokohama City
~ Independence support for young people who have difficulties such as withdrawal ~
Last update date April 12, 2024
In Motoichi, we carry out continuous consultation, support depending on the situation of each person for young people who have difficulty such as withdrawal from 15 years old to 39 years old.
Even if you say hikikomori, there are various conditions, such as "I can't leave the room", "I can go out if you are a family member," or "I can go to a nearby convenience store at night."
Consultations are accepted not only by the person but also by parents and guardians.
It is difficult to solve the withdrawal status alone by yourself or your family.
Don't worry alone, first consult a youth independence support organization by phone.
Free consultation and confidentiality will be kept.
