Every Ukrainian child found himself in the realities of war. A siren, the sound of an explosion, uncertainty, an atypical situation or even an emotional war-related conversation of adults traumatize children’s psyche.
The consequences of the war on our children will be fully realized only after the victory.
It is imperative now, without wasting time, to help children overcome the traumas caused by the war and teach them to live in the conditions of the new reality.
As a priority of this project, we chose to provide psychological assistance to children and teenagers who remained in the city of Kharkiv in conditions of constant threat to life and health.
We involved experienced child psychologists in the project.
