Abstract
Japan's approach to supporting children with disabilities underwent a period of significant change with the 2012 amendment of the Child Welfare Act. As a consequence, Japan's formerly disjointed support services for children with disabilities have been reformed into an integrated system. Children with disabilities in Japan can benefit from continuous institutional care and education services from infancy through school age under this policy. Such services are delivered via collaborative efforts by a variety of parties, including ministries, local governments, and facilities. Also, these services are offered in a variety of ways to make sure that children with disabilities are not treated unfairly and to promote their rights and social inclusion.
