Children who experience domestic abuse face lasting emotional and psychological harm. Exposure to violence can disrupt brain development, leading to anxiety, depression, and difficulty regulating emotions. Many struggle in school, have trouble trusting others, and develop low self-esteem. Without intervention, these effects can persist into adulthood, increasing the risk of mental health issues and unhealthy relationships. The added stress of fleeing abuse makes support during this time critical

Children in refuges face trauma, instability, and fear, missing out on normal childhood moments. Our summer program combines fun activities like creative workshops and trips to the zoo or beach with tailored psychological support. This mix helps children heal, have fun, and regain a sense of normalcy. Through play and therapy, we rebuild confidence, trust, and emotional well-being, laying the foundation for long-term recovery.
