Turn your new year’s gift into Happy Moments For Children!
In our Child and Youth Center in Balat, we have individual and group therapy sessions with children who need psychosocial support so that children spend happy moments and have imprints of happiness, instead of scars of trauma. In these 11 sessions children attend, we aim them to acquire five basic skills for psychological recovery (building problem solving skills, promoting positive activities, managing reactions, promoting helpful thinking, rebuilding healthy social connections). Because we know that as children spend happier moments and their skills increase, they become happier and better equipped for life. Support our work and together we will create #HappyMomentsForChildren!
