Trauma Training Team to Ukraine

Dear Friends,

We invite you to join us in a TRIP TO UKRAINE! We hope to be there in March -- in just a few weeks but not without your support!

First Aid of the Soul (FAS) is actively prepping for a trip to Ukraine this March. The founder and directors Nathalie Timtchenko and Eden Shoro along with two amazing colleagues Bobby Lloyd and Miriam Usiskin from Art Refuge in the United Kingdom will go to Ukraine for a special trip to train mental health professionals on the ground.

FAS is co-organizing a conference with the All-Ukrainian Art Therapy Association again this year and excited to be there in-person to offer live workshops in trauma-informed expressive arts approaches for the theme "Unity in Creative Collaboration".

While FAS and Art Refuge are there in Lviv (western Ukraine) they will also present several lectures and workshops for psychology students at a local university, and finally support staff and children at a shelter! We will be actively engaged in supporting the community and cannot wait to share more about the journey and how you may support the wellbeing of hundreds of Ukrainians!
