Pregnancy and Childcare Counseling Support
We provide counseling for those who are struggling with unexpected pregnancies or childbirth/childcare. We will discuss adoption as one option for raising the child.
Special Adoption Support
We support special adoptions* for children in need of a home.
Post-Adoption Consultation Service
We believe that allowing adopted children to trace their roots is a part of providing adoption support, and offer a consultation service in order to preserve the right of adopted children to know their origins.

Special Adoption
For Those Who Wish to Adopt a Child
The children for which ISSJ handles adoptions live in Japan, and are of various ages and family backgrounds.
We are seeking prospective adoptive parents who will welcome these children warmly and raise them in loving homes.

Post-Adoption Consultation Service
For Adoptee and Those Who Have Adopted a Child
Adoption does not end with the conclusion of the adoption process. It is an important and lifelong process for adopted children, their adoptive parents, and their birth parents and relatives. ISSJ provides a wide range of post-adoption consultations (tracing roots, reuniting with relatives, etc.), regardless of whether or not we assisted in the actual adoption.
