Circle of Support

The Charitable Foundation "THE FOUNDATION FOR MILITARY MEDICINE SUPPORT" is strengthening its presence in the public space VYBIR — a space for defenders.

From November to February 2026, the Foundation is implementing the project “Circle of Support: Overcoming the Psychological Consequences of War for Defenders and Their Families”, carried out with the support of the Ukrainian-Swiss project “Mental Health for Ukraine.”

As part of the project, the following activities will take place:

• group consultations with psychologists for defenders;

• psychoeducational and motivational meetings;

• an off-site retreat for defenders and their families;

• art therapy workshops for children and adults.

Our goal is to provide high-quality, comprehensive support to defenders and their families during their transition back to peaceful life. To achieve this, we are creating a welcoming and open space where everyone can receive help, restore or strengthen family relationships.

When our soldiers and their families return to civilian life, they need more than medical or social support—they need a place where they can feel safe, speak openly, reduce anxiety, find grounding, and restore inner balance.

The “Circle of Support” project creates exactly such a space—an atmosphere of trust, care, and acceptance. This project is about care, unity, and recovery. It is about recognizing that every defender and every hero’s family deserves attention, warmth, and support.

Supported by the Mental Health for Ukraine – #MH4U project, implemented with the support of the Embassy of Switzerland in Ukraine.
