Japanese Single Mothers' Association

The New York Japanese Single Mothers' Association, also known as Mimosa no Kai, was founded in June 2004. The name "Mimosa Kai" comes from the champagne cocktail "Mimosa" that we toasted together over brunch at our first meeting.

Since our first meeting in June 2004, we have been active through many events. We have expanded our activities to include workshops, lectures, social events, parent-child events, picnics, cherry blossom viewing, holiday parties, and more. Apart from group activities, we are also expanding our network of contacts and playdates with each mother as friends.

The purpose of the group is

  • a place to share similar feelings, feel solidarity, network, and exchange information.
  • A place where single mothers can help each other in a situation where they don't have parents, relatives or other family members close by, and where there is little support in daily life
  • It would be great if everyone could get together to relieve themselves and go home with a bit of energy It would be even better if there was a place where children could interact with each other

It would be even better if children could interact with each other.

We are an easy going group that is not too formal and enjoyable. Everyone is warm, kind, and strong mothers. ！ I feel that when the personalities and experiences of each person come together, it is a powerful experience to be a part of a group.

Currently, there are about 40 people on the member list, with a wide range of situations including divorced, separated, discussing separation, unmarried, bereaved, and the ages of their children range from 0 to 20+ years old. There are also a few who have returned to Japan, and we are connected with them through e-mail and other means. Even though everyone's situation is different, we have a lot of fun and never stop talking when we get together.
