For whom?

Trauma therapy for refugee families with children and for unaccompanied minors.

Training for professional support workers working with families, children and young people with a refugee background.

Why?

Institutions often struggle to reach refugee families and unaccompanied minors due to language barriers, the stigma attached to psychiatry in different cultures, a diffuse demand for help and a lack of knowledge of the needs and pathologies of this target group. Through outreach work with social workers and the target group, Solentra helps bridge the gap.
