Group home (Living Dormitory)
Before Ebisu Palette Home was opened, social conditions were such that it was difficult for people with intellectual disabilities to realize their own natural wish to live in the town where they were born and had spent their life. Putting together parents’ requests, the Association to Support Palette took the initiative to make a home so that people with intellectual disabilities could live in the community. The founding of Ebisu Palette Home realized a long-cherished wish of parents with people with intellectual disabilities who are living in Shibuya ward.		●One Scene at Birthday Party
