Saudi-funded health center helps Syrian child deal with trauma


RIYADH: Reham Abdel Karim Matar, a seven-year-old Syrian girl whose family had been displaced from the countryside in Homs and was living with her parents and brothers in one of the Arsal camps in Lebanon, was suffering. Representatives of the King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center saw this and stepped in to help.

“Reham suffered from extreme fear due to a traumatic event that led to her isolation and not leaving her tent,” the center, also know as KS relief, wrote in a message posted on Twitter.

“She started therapy in Arsal Health Center, funded by the King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center, and her condition improved significantly.”
