Help Ukrainian Refugees Access Mental Health!

Thank you for your generous support of this work. Because of you, AWB Netherlands has expanded from two active clinics to seven active clinics occurring each month. This growth represents more than increased capacity—it means more individuals and families now have access to trauma-informed care in places where they feel safe.

Through partnerships with Rasom Haarlem, multiple COA asylum centers, and Pauluskerk Rotterdam, as well as in Utrecht and Amsterdam. AWB Netherlands is reaching Ukrainian refugees, individuals awaiting asylum decisions, and people experiencing homelessness or undocumented status. In many of these settings, hundreds of people rely on temporary housing and basic services while navigating deep uncertainty. Access to trauma informed healthcare is often limited—yet profoundly needed.

As one AWB Netherlands team member recently reflected:

“What I find special every time is how people enter—tense, sad, their faces closed—and how they leave after half an hour—lighter, calmer, sometimes even smiling.”

That shift, however subtle, is meaningful. It is often the first moment of relief someone has experienced in a long time.

The need continues to grow, and AWB Netherlands is continuing to actively recruit additional team members to expand into new locations. With sustained funding, we can strengthen existing clinics and ensure more people receive care when they need it most.

Your support makes this work possible.

Thank you for helping create places where healing can begin—and for all you do to make the world a more compassionate place.
