As part of the project "Strengthening capacities for independent living of persons with disabilities in BiH" which the Information Center for Persons with Disabilities "Lotos" Tuzla is implementing in partnership with STIL – personal assistance and political influence Center for independent living Stil from Stockholm, with the support of MyRight, started a program of psychological support for parents of children with different types of disabilities. The City of Tuzla also provided support for the program of psychological support for parents.
Psychological support is an opportunity for parents to share their experiences and a space where they find understanding and support in the challenges they face. This group is a safe and confidential place where parents can talk about their feelings, receive useful advice and learn how to better cope with different life situations.
Together, we are surely moving towards the goal of empowering and searching for ways to improve the quality of life of parents and their children with disabilities.
Our psychological support group participants are not alone on this journey and together we will continue to work on strengthening their capacities and creating a support network that will help them with their daily challenges.
