How does war trauma affect children?
Children in Syria has experienced horrors no child should ever face
Children who have witnessed the war firsthand often carry deep trauma. For many, this leads to PTSD, anxiety, and depression. Therapeutic approaches used at the Family House help children put words to their fears—so they can move what’s trapped in their minds into the open.
For example, children draw their greatest fears on paper butterflies and then release them. This simple yet powerful exercise helps heal the wounds of war. These tools give children new hope—hope that can light a path out of the darkness.
