In 2022 and 2023, the Association of SOS Children’s Villages Latvia, with the support of local donors and the International SOS organization, implemented various support measures for Ukrainian civilians — children and families who arrived in Latvia as asylum seekers. We provided psychological support, material assistance, organized Latvian and Ukrainian language lessons, excursions, camps, and creative workshops, as well provided First Emotional Aid support for mothers. In the SOS Children's Village in Īslīce, we welcomed several Ukrainian families, providing accommodation in village homes and emotional support.
In the first half of 2024, we continued Latvian language lessons for children, psychological support, and First Emotional Aid support for mothers.
Currently, in cooperation with Finnish SOS Children's Villages, we provide an online support chat for children in Ukrainian at letschat.fi: «Давай поспілкуємось» - розкажи про турботи і ми допоможемо
