About Certified NPO Florence
Changing Japan for the sake of children.
Florence is the largest NPO in Japan, working to solve social issues and create value by focusing on three pillars: business development, policy advocacy, and cultural creation, to nurture children who will be the future.
Established in 2004 as Japan's first visiting and mutual support sick child care organization, we conduct comprehensive activities in the child and childcare domain in Japan, including support for single-parent families and prevention of child poverty, prevention of child abuse and parent-child isolation, and support for families with children with disabilities.
Our "Ouchi Hoikuen" model for solving the waiting list child problem was nationalized as a "Small-Scale Authorized Childcare Facility" in FY2015. We also operate Japan's first "Shogaizhi Hoikuen Helen," which provides specialized long-term care for children with disabilities, and "Florence's Pregnancy Counseling" and "Baby Adoption" to resolve child abuse issues, and are accelerating initiatives nationwide such as "Kodomo Takushoku" to solve child poverty.
We are an NPO that creates "new normalities" in society together with many colleagues. Florence Corporate Site URL: https://florence.or.jp/
