Mental health workers are helping displaced children worldwide who are traumatized and experiencing PTSD.
In 2020, armed conflict involving Azerbaijan and Armenia decimated the Armenian breakaway state of Artsakh. In 2023, Azerbaijan launched a large-scale military offensive against Artsakh, forcing the population to leave their homeland. With no other options available, all of the displaced individuals sought refuge in Armenia, the only accessible neighboring country.
To address this, we established temporary social work centers in 13 of the most refugee-populated areas. These centers provide a space where children and families can interact, play, and re-establish social networks that they have lost. We provide support to overcome language barriers, facilitate introductions and orientations to new schools and cultures, and create a safe environment for children to express themselves, make friends, and just be kids.
