ABOUT

Ayumi Mitsumoto is the founder and the director of Weeds, a nonprofit based in the Chiba Prefecture city of Funabashi. Weeds is a leading organization in supporting children and youth who suffer from family issues such as abuse, maltreatment and problems resulting from their parents’ divorce or remarriage. Bringing her experience as a child who was a witness of issues in her own family, over 8 years Ayumi led Weeds in reaching out and empowering around 9000 children and youth. This was accomplished via online consultation, livelihood support and support ensuring visitation. Ayumi was awarded the CCJA in 2022.
