hello!

wife, mother, caregiver

Hi, I’m Riana, a mom of a child with diverse needs, living here in Japan.

The information you’ll find here comes from what I’ve learned over more than ten years of navigating the disability system with my own family, along with research, consultations with professionals, and insights from other families like mine.

I hope it can serve as a useful starting point if you are going through something similar.

I do my best to ensure that the information on this site is accurate at the time it is published. However, policies and services in Japan can vary by municipality and change over time. I always recommend confirming details with your local ward or city office and consulting qualified professionals for advice specific to your situation.
