Some were forced to evacuate, others lost their homes, and many endured occupation or continue living in communities where danger is a daily reality. In such moments, it is especially important to know that you are not alone \u2014 that there is a place where you will be understood, supported, and helped to find inner peace.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Such a place for residents of the Kherson region has become the \u201cCare Space,\u201d where children and adults can receive psychosocial support. There are always people nearby who will listen, provide comfort, and help you better understand yourself and your emotions.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\" src=\"https:\/\/www.posmishka.org.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC08187-1024x684.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7959\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.posmishka.org.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC08187-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.posmishka.org.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC08187-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.posmishka.org.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC08187-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.posmishka.org.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC08187-1536x1026.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.posmishka.org.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC08187-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.posmishka.org.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC08187.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our meetings are a time and space to pause, feel safe, and reconnect with yourself. They help participants manage emotions, reduce stress, recognize and express feelings. Through creativity, movement, communication, and being among those who understand, participants gradually regain inner balance and a sense of stability.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In this environment, everyone can simply be \u2014 at their own pace, without pressure or expectations. The rooms offer a calm atmosphere, colorful materials for creative work, warm blankets, and spaces for play or conversation. Some find comfort in drawing or crafting, others prefer to talk, while some just want to sit quietly nearby.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\" src=\"https:\/\/www.posmishka.org.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC08251-1024x684.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7961\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.posmishka.org.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC08251-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.posmishka.org.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC08251-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.posmishka.org.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC08251-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.posmishka.org.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC08251-1536x1026.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.posmishka.org.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC08251-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.posmishka.org.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC08251.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The \u201cCare Space\u201d operates in Kherson, as well as in the Borozenska, Kalynivska, Velykooleksandrivska, and Beryslav communities.
