Research Abstract |
The first project in 1993 is to clarify the characteristics of residential for persons with mental retardation in Japan by two foreign co-researchers, Dr.Henry Leland from the Ohio State University from the U.S. and Mr.Lars Molander from Stockholm County Board for intellectual handicaps from Sweden. This was accomplished by inviting Dr.Leland and Mr.Molander to Japan from the 13th of September to the 26th of September and introducing many kinds of residential services in Aichi Prefecture with discussion through professional persons. The academic seminar which was held on the 18th in Nagoya with 500 audiences also helped to clarify characteristics of services in Japan. Mr.Kanji Watanabe, the representative of the research project chaired the seminar with panelists of Dr.Leland, Mr.Molander, Mr.Mineyasu Suzuki, the president of Aichi Aigo Association, the largest association of mental retardation, and Mr.Yoshinori Matushita, vice president of the same association. The characteristics of social services in Japan are as follows. 1. The time discrepancy of Japan to develop the residential services caused the rapid development of medium sized residential institutions. 2. Actualization of community services for persons with mental retardation in Japan needs both of two conditions which promoted the community services in Sweden and the U.S., the district team developed in Sweden and case management developed in the U.S. The second project which aims to clarify the development and idea of the social services for persons with mental retardation in Sweden and the U.S. was achieved by visit to the U.S. and the correspondence with the co-researcher in Sweden. The transition from large, segregated residential institutions to the community services were clarified with data such as numbers of residential institutions and community homes with the number of clients in each setting.
