The Strong People project launched on July 1, 2022. Its first phase will last three months and will assist 80 children who are now living around Lviv, Ukraine.Art therapy is one of the most effective ways to heal the wounds inflicted by war and it is one of the mediums deployed in Strong People project. Art therapists use paints, clay, plasticine, and other materials when working with children who have witnessed the horrors of war. . Physical health, prevention, and recovery from various diseases of the musculoskeletal system are also important.
