Adopted children often experience difficult events in early childhood, when they live in an orphanage or asocial families. The child's psyche is not able to cope with such tragic events, so the consequences of this past haunt children, even when they end up in a loving adoptive family.

This happened to Yana, an adopted teenager who experienced cruel treatment in childhood and now could not trust her new parents, harmed herself and behaved aggressively with others.

Thanks to your help, Yana, along with other children, attended group sessions with a psychologist, learned how to safely express emotions, overcame fears and became closer to her adoptive parents.

Thank you for giving children a happy and safe growing up!

In order for Yana and other children to learn to trust foster parents, the children need the help of a psychologist

Yana is 13 years old, six months ago foster parents took the child from the orphanage. After three months, the girl was unrecognizable: she was aggressive and did not trust anyone, Yana often hid in the bathroom and did not let her parents into her room. "She began to threaten that she would scratch her face if we came to her" - says the girl's mother. The foster parents turned to our foundation for help.

After living in an orphanage, foster children in a new family often do not trust their parents because they have experienced abuse in early childhood. In the orphanage, children have no significant adult and no reliable support. After this experience, children need the help of a psychologist to learn to trust their parents. During group sessions children can discuss their fears and difficulties with the specialist, learn to communicate with peers and believe that their parents will not abandon them.

Let's help Yana and other foster children to establish warm relationships with foster parents, so that no child returns to the orphanage!
