  • PSYCHOSOCIAL SUPPORT: From its clinic in Za’atari, FPSC offered 104 individualized psychosocial support sessions, specifically counseling and sensitization, to 104 parents, mothers and / or caregivers of people with disabilities.
  • INCLUSION: The FPSC organized four inclusive-recreational and volunteer activities for 23 refugees with and without disabilities (15 minors and 8 youth), focused on the theatre that, in addition to raising awareness about disability, integrated a cross-cutting component of peace building and conflict resolution; and four sensitization and information sessions for 288 refugees, reporting on the services available in the field and their relevance.
