The National Child Welfare Center (Nagoya City, Aichi Prefecture), a certified nonprofit organization, will hold its 14th Ordinary General Meeting and 15th anniversary commemorative event on Saturday, June 20, 2026, starting at 15:00.
Since 2012, the National Child Welfare Center has operated from a public space near Nagoya Station’s west exit. Rather than simply viewing individuals facing hardship as recipients of support, the organization actively creates spaces where people can meet, interact, and build meaningful relationships.
Participants in its activities include children and youth with diverse backgrounds—those experiencing school refusal or social withdrawal, individuals from child welfare institutions, young people with disabilities, those facing life challenges, and people with experience of homelessness.
Over the past 15 years, more than 28,000 children and youth have participated in its programs. Every Saturday, the organization continues to host outreach activities at the plaza in front of Nagoya Station’s west exit, with children and youth themselves taking the lead in planning and managing these events.
This year’s general meeting will share the 14th period’s activity report and future plans, while reflecting on 15 years of achievements and discussing the future of youth support and community development together with participants.
The National Child Welfare Center is funded through membership fees, donations, and fundraising. To ensure the continued existence of a safe and inclusive space where children and youth can gather, connect, and grow, the organization welcomes both attendance at the meeting and financial support through donations.
The preparation and invitations for the general meeting were also handled by youth members.
