Welcome to Nakayoshi's House
"Nakayoshi no Ie" is the first group home in Miyamae Ward, Kawasaki City, where people with severe physical and mental disabilities can live within the community.
We want people to live safely and comfortably in the communities they've grown accustomed to, and to live life in a way that's true to themselves.
It was created as a place that fulfills the wishes of both the individual and their family.
The building's structure and facilities are designed to suit the individual needs of each resident, and daily meals are prepared with a focus on homemade ingredients.
We not only provide basic necessities, but we also value the sense of security that comes from knowing you belong here, and the opportunity to live each day surrounded by human connection.
Company Overview
We are a non-profit organization established with the aim of creating a safe and secure environment for people with severe disabilities to live in their communities.
We primarily operate group homes, focusing on providing life support and fostering connections with the local community.
In 2018, as preparation for establishing a group home, we opened a shared house and started a home helper dispatch service.
Subsequently, in February 2019, it received designation as a "Group Home Nakayoshi no Ie" and officially began operations.
Furthermore, we value our connections with the local community and the next generation, and we conduct lectures in collaboration with universities and accept student part-time workers and volunteers.
Furthermore, we are also engaged in cultivating crops by utilizing local farmland and collaborating with related organizations.
Beyond the confines of welfare, we aim to create a society where everyone can live with peace of mind through activities that connect people with each other and communities with welfare.
理事長挨拶
私たちは、社会（又は地域社会）におけるあらゆる差別や偏見・無関心をなくすことを私たちの活動を支えるとともに活動の中心にあるもっとも大切な理念として位置付けています。
それは、地域とのつながりを大切にし、誰もが安心して共に暮らせる地域社会づくりに取り組むことです。また、利用者を主体とし、その意思表明と自己決定を尊重した支援を大切にする居場所づくりに取り組むことです。
これらは、私たちの定款に基づいた目的であり、大切に守り続ける理念です。
現在は障害福祉分野を中心とした活動ですが現状に満足することなく、支援の対象とその領域を超えた活動とその場を広げていきたいと考えています。
地域とのつながりを大切にし、誰もが遠慮することなく立ち寄り、思い思いに過ごせる居場所を地域の中に広げていきたいと考えてその第一歩として私たちの事業所がある稗原地域では、地域のつながりを大切にし行政・学校・町内会・福祉団体といった多岐にわたるメンバーで構成されている「ゆーず連絡会」の一員として参加させていただきました。
「地域とのつながりを大切にし、誰もが遠慮することなく立ち寄り、思い思いに過ごせる居場所を地域の中に広げていきたい」という活動は地域を超えた活動として取り組んでいきたいと考えています。
最後に、本年は法人を立ち上げて9年目を迎えようとしています。あっという間でしたが、気を緩めることなく、障害者や障害児を対象にした相談支援事業をスタートする予定です。
一歩一歩ではありますが、理念を実践として形にしながら、着実に前進しています。 これからも「本当に利用者にとって最善なのか」「利用者本人よりもその家族や職員の都合が優先されてはいないか」——私たちは、常にそのような問いを胸に持ちながら、日々の実践に丁寧に向き合ってまいります。これからも、どうぞよろしくお願いいたします。
