Project of psychological support for children of fallen Ukrainian defenders aged 7 to 15

Who is the project for?

Illustration

The “Children of Fallen Warriors” project is a three-month program of free psychological support for children who are experiencing loss in the format of weekly online groups with a psychologist. The project is suitable for your child if:

    your child lost a father, mother or other close relative who served in the Ukrainian army;
    more than 2 months have passed since the loss (in the acute period, it is better to seek individual support);
    your child has the opportunity to regularly attend the group for 16 sessions once a week.

Please note! It doesn't matter if your child has emotional or behavioral difficulties after the loss or not. Every child needs support during the difficult period after a loss. Even if your girl or boy does not show any symptoms, the group can be a great support and help the child through the natural grieving process.

What do support groups do for children who are bereaved?

Participation in a support group will help your child:

    find solace and mutual understanding among people who are going through similar experiences;
    to feel that she is not alone, alongside peers who are also experiencing the loss of a loved one;
    relieve tension and feelings of isolation while communicating in a safe space;
    reduce anxiety and depression through empathy, deep understanding, creativity, and self-regulation exercises;
    Strengthen self-esteem, internal resources, and find hope;
    rebuild internal and external supports that will help you find your way to live a meaningful life.
