Yeah, Kanagawa Ward

　In this month's “Director General People and Town Exploration (outside site)”, we visited the “Nursing Oyako Network Gift”, which is active in order to deepen our understanding of disabilities in the community.
　
The “Nursing Oyako Network Gift” was born in 2015 in the wake of the “Nursing Parent-Child Friendly Talk” that began at the Kanagawa Ward Community Child Care Support Center Kanachie. Focusing on parents who bring up children who need nursing care, we are working on activities such as creating a place for conversation, enlightenment workshops, and creating time for learning. .

　On this day, it was a regular meeting once a month. The members were preparing for a workshop to be held at Kamihoshikawa Elementary School the following week. This is a workshop for faculty and staff to learn about differences. Based on the philosophy of "To a world where people can live with an interesting personality that is different from each other", by focusing on "anyone has a difference", By "knowing the difference", It seems that it is being implemented with the hope that it will lead to mutual understanding and to think about how to create an area where it is easy to live and a school / class where it is easy to spend.

　There are regular changes to faculty and staff. The teacher who received the training conveyed the importance of "knowing the difference" at the elementary school where he was transferred, and planned a workshop with the hope that the idea of "different is interesting" will spread in various places. Was.

　Gifts say that the activities of the group are "seeding activities". Like the fluff of a dandelion, it is intended to spread the desire to know the difference. In the future, I would like you to continue the activities of gifts with your thoughts for a long time.
