To whom it may concern -
On behalf of Tokyo Therapy and Counseling (referred to hereby as T.T.C.), we would like to seek your permission for research regarding the psychological effects of the penal system on inmates.
To summarise our approach and our goals, we wish to provide acceptance therapy to inmates who sign with us. In return for that therapy, we would like to gather certain information regarding quotes, CCTV logs of an office space (if you approve) and a summary of their criminal history. We will provide one trained therapist, available Thursdays and Saturdays. We will provide privacy forms and will commit to keeping the volunteers’ personal information (any names mentioned, information that may harm Shibuya Correctional Facility’s good reputation [hereby referred to as S.C.F.] and sensitive details that the inmate states as unpublishable) unpublished.
We will provide you with updates regarding our interactions with the inmates. The S.C.F. will be published as a major contributor of the final publication and we appreciate whatever communication we share with the S.C.F. Thank you for your time.
- Lead Researcher Takuto Maruki
