One billion people have directly experienced terrorism or mass violence. The victims are often left with lifelong mental disabilities preventing them from leading productive lives. Camp internees lead non-sanitary, unsafe, crowded, and hopeless existences. Traumatic depression and suicide are very frequent. Weekly visits by a psychiatric team to a displaced persons camp can help approximately 30 patients per visit. Your gift will help alleviate the mental anguish of some of these people.
