For single-parent households with a child who has not yet finished junior high school, the city sends home helpers to help with meals, childcare, cleaning, and similar. It can be used when life has suddenly changed within 2 years of becoming a single parent; when you temporarily cannot manage because of attending school to get a qualification, job hunting, illness, weddings or funerals, school events, or similar; or when you come home late from work while raising infants or elementary school children. Visits are in principle up to 12 times a month. There is no income limit, but there is an out-of-pocket cost depending on income. First, book an interview with a single-parent self-reliance support worker.
Nationality and residence status
The official page (checked in October 2026) sets no condition on nationality or residence status that we found. Eligibility follows the official conditions, not the language of this page; many programs require resident registration in the municipality.
Who is eligible
Single-parent households with an address in Inagi City and a child who has not finished compulsory education, who meet a reason for dispatch (within 2 years of becoming a single parent, attending school to learn skills, job hunting, temporary illness, coming home late from work while raising infants or elementary school children, and similar)
Notes
When coming home late from work, it is for households that regularly need daily living help or childcare services, excluding work within regular working hours. Temporary use for illness or similar requires prior arrangement.Contact: Child Welfare Department, Child-Rearing Support Division, 042-378-2111
