Since its inception, Children of Heroes has been paying special attention to psychological support for children and their guardians who have been affected by military aggression and are under the care of the Fund.

Children living through loss and other traumatic experiences are often left alone with their feelings. The adults around them do not always know or understand how to help the child and often need support themselves.

Timely professional psychological support can help children identify and express their feelings, reduce fear and anxiety, restore internal resources, live through the loss, and turn traumatic experiences into opportunities for personal growth and self-realization.

As part of the Psychological support program, children and guardians can receive individual counseling and attend psychological support groups, as well as educational and psychoeducational lectures and training. The main program goal is to stabilize the emotional state of children and their guardians. It also aims to prevent the development of post-traumatic stress disorder, complicated grief, and other emotional, behavioral, and somatic disorders. These issues may arise as a result of the loss of loved ones and life during war.

We are confident that with proper support, our children will be able to effectively overcome life’s difficulties and develop into healthy, happy, and confident individuals.
