Training on the program “Children and War” took place in Rzhyshchev, Kyiv region

On April 5-7, at the initiative of Christians of the local branch of the Kyiv Church of Christ in the city of Rzhyshchiv, Kyiv region, a training was held under the program “Children and War. Teaching Recovering Techniques”. The territorial community of this settlement has about 10 thousand inhabitants, but since the beginning of the war in Ukraine the city has received many migrants. The event was attended not only by Christians of the church community, but also local experts from the Inclusive Resource Center and the Pii Secondary School, as well as some migrants. The training took place in the premises of the local Evangelical Church and with the support of the mayor of Rzhyshchiv Chornenka Kristina Ivanivna. “Helping Hand for Ukraine” project coach Natalia Podoliak taught ten new specialists to understand the nature of child trauma, heal these wounds through the “Children and War” program, and simple but much-needed ways to help children in this turbulent time in Ukraine.
