Rainbow Plaza, located on the 8th floor of the IMS Building in Tenjin, offers free consultation regarding health, legal, and personal matters for foreigners in Fukuoka.

Free health consultations are held every Wednesday from 5 to 7 PM. There, a volunteer Japanese medical doctor will try to answer your questions about health problems, medical services and the Japanese medical system. Consultation is available in English or Japanese. Do you worry about your health but have no idea which hospital to go to, or are you worried about going to hospitals because you lack confidence in your Japanese language skills? These services may be right for you. Reservations are not necessary, so please feel at ease to stop in and share your concerns.

Legal consultations at Rainbow Plaza are available from 1 to 4 PM on the first and third Saturdays of every month. On each day, up to four people can sign up for consultation. Each session runs for approximately 45 minutes including time for interpretation, if necessary. If you’ll need an interpreter, mention that when you make your reservation and Rainbow Plaza will make arrangements. The service is available by appointment only, and a lawyer from the Fukuoka Bar Association will offer the consultation.

Free personal counseling with a Japanese clinical psychologist is also available at Rainbow Plaza. Services are offered in English or Japanese, every Monday, Thursday and Saturday. Reservations are required, and the staff at Rainbow Plaza will arrange appointment times with the psychologist.

If you choose to use the personal, legal or health counseling services, you should know that confidentiality is guaranteed. Relax and feel at ease to take advantage of these complementary services.

Rainbow Plaza is open from 10 AM until 8 PM.
