In the process of dealing with criminal cases, there is an important stage where the criminal offenders undergo rehabilitation programs in communities with the aim of reintegrating into society.
The field of “Kosei Hogo (Offenders’ Rehabilitation)” plays a major role in this stage. In recent years, there has been a growing recognition that collaboration with other fields, especially in the social welfare sector, is crucial to achieve a better social reintegration.
