An update on Kirill, the boy from Mariupol who with his mother fled their home with little more than the clothes on their backs. They resettled in Dnipro while the father was away at war with the Azov battalion that was captured. After months of worry and uncertainty Kirill and his mother learned that father survived the bombing of the prison and remains in captivity. JRNU provides extensive support including speech therapy and other services to address the developmental impact of the trauma Kirill endured.
Galina, 70, from the village of Vinogradovo near Uzhhorod, survived a traumatic ordeal long before the war. In 2003, drug addicts set fire to her house and threw her onto a hot stove. For the past 20 years she has been living with complete strangers, barely getting by. JRNU provides her with food, warm clothing and blankets and much more to improve Galina's quality of life.
Little Eva from Kyiv and her family lack funds for food and other necessities. Like thousands of other children, Eva has suffered emotional trauma from the war, resulting in panic attacks and other symptoms. JRNU arranges for a psychologist to treat Eva on a regular basis to facilitate a return to her happy childhood.
