長崎少年鑑別所

The Nagasaki Juvenile Classification Home is a specialized facility that receives young people under 20 years old for assessment and evaluates their individual needs and circumstances. Staff members here study behavior and background factors to identify the most appropriate path for rehabilitation and support in each case.

This facility emerged as part of Japan's development in juvenile justice and belongs to a nationwide network of assessment centers for young people. It reflects how the country's approach to supporting and evaluating youth has evolved over time.

The center integrates Japanese rehabilitation methods focusing on family involvement and community reintegration while maintaining structured daily routines for juvenile residents.

The facility works with young people referred by family courts, and stays typically last up to 14 days. Visiting or obtaining further information usually requires contact with the relevant authorities or family court.

Unlike a prison or punishment facility, this center functions purely as a diagnostic station to support court decisions. The assessments help judges make the best decisions for each young person rather than simply punishing them.
