Despite Japans declining birth rate,child suicide, abuse, and school non-attendance are all on the rise.

Young people face many kinds of struggles at home, at school, with health, identity, or values.
What many of them share is the feeling that there is nothing they can do.

In a society growing more disconnectedand individualized,
the spaces to share difficult feelingsmay be disappearing.

So that even difficult feelings can begin to feel manageable.To help you find belongingin your 1st family (your own family)or 2nd family (your community),we exist as the 3rd family.

And when today's teenagers grow into adults,may the cycle of problems stop.
May the world where childrenwant to die before growing up come to an end.
We aim for fundamental resolutionof tomorrow's problems.

A third place to belong
