Support for job-aged generations to provide 780 million yen for local government business March 31 14:59

In order to support the so-called employment ice age generation, the government has decided to provide a total of 780 million yen for 60 projects undertaken by local governments, including the development of a consultation system.

To support the efforts of local governments to support the job-aged ice age generation, the government has established a new grant system, which will provide 780 million yen for the 60 projects as the first step.

Specifically, we will open a programming class in cooperation with a local company, establish an initiative in Ota City, Gunma Prefecture to support employment at an IT company, and establish an office where clinical psychologists receive consultation from hikikomori people and their families. Includes Fukuoka Prefecture's efforts to improve.

In July, the government will issue the second project in July and inform the nation of the projects that have been effective.

"We hope that these efforts will open up opportunities for the ice age generation," said Nishimura, the Minister for Economic Revitalization at a press conference.
