Our mHealth program shares research-informed parenting strategies. The program is currently being developed in collaboration with parents and educators, as well as researchers from art therapy, engineering, and peace education.  A series of short animated videos and daily tips are sent to Japanese parents of children aged 4~10 via LINE. 

The parenting strategies introduced in the program are informed by behavioral and neuroimaging research findings on reward and punishment sensitivity in ADHD. 

We are currently testing the pilot program! Please enroll if you are interested♡ (Japanese only)  

We also introducing program content online via monthly hybrid community meetings opened for people in Okinawa.

We are especially interested in enhancing behavioral health support for children who may be experiencing challenges in their daily lives because of their attention and activity levels.
