                        Free Counseling Services
Rainbow Plaza, located on the 8th floor of the IMS Building in Tenjin, offers free consultation regarding health care for foreigners in Fukuoka.

Do you know anybody who is worried about their health but they have no idea which hospital to go to, or someone who is worried about going to hospitals because they lack confidence in their Japanese language skills?
Free consultations are held every Wednesday from 5 to 7 PM at Rainbow Plaza. Volunteer Japanese medical doctors will try to answer your questions about health problems, medical services and the Japanese medical system. Consultation is available in English or Japanese. Advanced reservations are not needed. Please feel free to share your concerns.

And, Rainbow Plaza would also like to let you know that it offers free legal consultation and personal counseling services for foreign residents of Fukuoka.

The legal consultations 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. The service is available by appointment only, and a lawyer from the Fukuoka Bar Association will offer the consultation.

If you’ll need an interpreter, mention that when you make your reservation and Rainbow Plaza will make arrangements.

Personal counseling is offered by a Japanese clinical psychologist, in English or Japanese, every Monday, Thursday and Saturday. The staff at Rainbow Plaza will arrange an appointment with the psychologist.

If you would like to use the legal or personal counseling services, please be aware that an advanced reservation is needed. Confidentiality is guaranteed, so please feel free to take advantage of these complementary services.

For further information, or to make reservations, please call Rainbow Plaza at 092-733-2220, that’s 092-733-2220.
