It is always interesting to work with people who need support and empathy in the current situation. These are the people who come to the rehabilitation center of the Fund “Sukhumi”. In March, there were women and minors here. There were children who are growing up without a mother. They need an individual approach. The center's employees carried out systematic work with the beneficiaries.
Psychologist Eka Kvachakidze notes: "The family plays a huge role in the formation of a child's aggressiveness. A person maintains a characteristic style of aggressive reactions over a long period of time. We encountered such problems in the process of work, but our efforts had a positive effect on the children. This is visible in their drawings."
