Support Centre Launched to Help People with Disabilities Affected by the Kumamoto Earthquake

from Disability News Japan · host Michael Gillan Peckitt

In the aftermath of the Kumamoto Earthquake, a new support center is working to reach people with disabilities who have been left without assistance and are unable to speak up for themselves. With many still isolated in their homes and surrounded by the destruction, local and national support organizations are joining forces to identify those in need and deliver help where government support has yet to reach. For inquiries, contact the Kumamoto Earthquake Disaster-Affected Persons with Disabilities Support Center at 070-5475-1100.
