Our women’s support groups are built around shared experience. During this period, we opened two cohorts for women whose husbands are serving in active military service. This program follows the “5 Steps to Resilience for Those Who Wait” methodology developed by the Rehabilitation and Readaptation Center “Yarmiz”.
One additional group was organized for women whose husbands are considered missing (an ambiguous loss). After completing the program, the participants met in person in Ivano-Frankivsk to strengthen the bonds they had formed through shared time, creative activities, and simple human connection.
Women continue to stay in touch and support each other.
This “side effect” has become a powerful source of strength as they navigate an extremely difficult chapter of life.
