The target expenses are the expenses required for continuing the service, so the expenses required for prevention such as 2 are not eligible.

If the requirements are met, can I apply for subsidies in all projects?	You can apply. Health and Social Welfare Bureau is responsible for services based on the Comprehensive Support for Persons with Disabilities Act, such as group homes for persons with disabilities, so please check with them.
