What is Japan Crisis Pregnancy Hotline Network?

We were established in November, 2015 to prevent:

●Infant death and serious injury caused by child abuse
●Infant Abandonment
●Emergency delivery without prenatal checkup
●Children’s long-term stay in institutions

We want to accomplish these missions by:

●Improving the quality of services provided by crisis pregnancy consulting centers in Japan
●Collaborating with other professionals that work with women in crisis pregnancy situations

We hope to cooperate with other professionals and organizations and expand the network of Crisis Pregnancy Consulting Centers
throughout Japan in order to reach out to pregnant women in harsh living conditions and to connect them with proper support and resources.

We became General Incorporated Foundation in January 2017.
