Oops! Apologies, Yo.
I hit the "Send" button too soon. Almost all the hits were for this Center in Kanagawa, but I also see there are centers in Oguchi (Aichi Pref.) and a couple of others. Accordingly, I would have to say that this answer is not correct, (unless it IS Kanagawa your doc deals with...)
I couldn't see any "official" name, but would unofficially suggest "Disaster Relief Volunteer Support Center."
