Yumi Nishimura, Representative Director of the Japan Pediatric Developmental Parenting Support Association (CDPSA-JAPAN), conducted a municipal-commissioned lecture at Aeon Mall Imabari New City in Ehime Prefecture on March 7, 2026, and a small-group lecture at a parenting support salon in Takatsuki, Osaka, on April 22, 2026. Despite the difference in scale—approximately 80 attendees at the commercial facility and 30 at the parenting salon—both events were highly acclaimed for Nishimura’s consistent stance of ensuring participants leave with knowledge they can immediately put into practice. This press release introduces the association's lecture achievements to local governments, administration, corporations, and educational institutions. Nishimura's lectures are characterized by interactive sessions that address the specific concerns of individual participants, rather than one-way presentations. The association remains committed to providing high-quality lectures through ongoing partnerships with municipalities and organizations.
