The afternoon will include:

• A beautiful live concert

About the Initiative

All proceeds support the development of a Certificate Program in Arts, Health, and Community Resilience in Ukraine, training clinicians and non-clinicians in trauma-informed, arts-based approaches to mental health and community care. We are already partnering with universities and hospitals across Ukraine to implement this initiative.
