Welcome to the home of the latest edition of the Japan Foundation, Los Angeles' Advocacy Kit, Version 3. We designed the new kit reflecting many of your suggestions making the core materials more reader friendly and enjoyable. Our hope is that these materials will be useful to the key stakeholders who are responsible for Japanese language education and foreign language education in general for our future generations here in the United States. After reviewing the materials, we would really appreciate your feedback regarding the revised materials.
