At the end of еру last year fund "Sukhumi" (together with NGOs
of Ozurgeti and Akhaltsikhe) was involved in the project of the National
Network of Protection from Violence "Rehabilitation for freedom".
The training was an innovation for the fund, as the
work with probationers and adolescent boys, who are at risk, was carried out
for the first time.
The trainings were held in their office on the topics:
effective communication, conflict and alternative solutions, assertive behavior.
The psychologist of еру fund actively worked at the training. There were also shown forum-theatre
performances of Fund "Sukhumi".
The participants expressed their desire to take part
in such work once again, and social workers and officers of Probation Office
decided to continue active cooperation with our organization.
Our cooperation has been renewed since the New Year.
On 21 January a meeting was held with women
probationers. After introduction, the work continued with the mental associative
cards, where each of them found themselves and told about their experienced hard
days. After three hours work their faces looked calm - and they became so close
that exchanged their contact information and expressed a desire to participate
in next meetings. |
