Each set included 15 groups with about ten people. The mental health program focuses on Children and War and Safe Space. It helps to build children’s stress resistance in the unstable situation in Ukraine and work separately in the psychosocial area, where they conduct various workshops and crafts. “No child should be left with the trauma of war. The main goal of our foundation is to protect the rights of children and to ensure that the war does not take away childhood from our children,” Alyona Chyryk said, coordinator of Vysokyi village branch of the Voice of Children charity foundation. This point in Vysokyi is the first location in the Kharkiv region.
