Our children are forced to live their only childhood during the difficult events of the war. This traumatic experience will stay with them forever, but we cannot allow it to steal their childhood and become a burden that prevents them from developing and shaping their future. Working with young Ukrainians who have lost the most precious thing – their parents, I am more and more convinced that the most inviolable generation in our history is growing before our eyes – the one Ukraine has long deserved!

The comprehensive program of psychological rehabilitation

We use a unique combination of scientific-based strategies of trauma treatment for children, who suffered from war. The match of group and individual forms of psychotherapy allows us to provide children with intensive but longstanding results of treatment. We work with over 28 different tools to make sure that we can reach out to different children with the specifically adjusted approach.

Gen.Ukrainian team of experienced psychologists have created their own innovative program in dealing with trauma called “Sheltered by Love” since existing international programs were simply not oriented for such depth of war trauma in the 21st century.

We are sharing our own treatment programs and updated protocols with the Ministry of Health of Ukraine, to help with the rehabilitation of children who have experienced trauma from the war and help them in their path to recovery. The protocols of assistance for such children that Gen.Ukrainian are groundbreaking and have the potential to elevate international standards of trauma treatment.

Sheltered by Love

ARTBOOK CRYONES

This is a unique collection of children's, yet not-at-all childish, stories, each captured with great attention to detail and authenticity.

The stories told in it belong to Ukrainian children who experienced the loss of their loved ones due to the war. They are straightforward and naive, direct and shy, and most importantly – sincere and direct, as only children can tell. But these are not just sad stories about pain and loss.

Through these stories, one can learn to see the grief of loss not as an end, but as part of a larger journey—a journey to self-discovery and resilience.

CRYONES is a completely charitable project. All funds collected from the sale of the art book will be directed to the psychological rehabilitation of Ukrainian children.
