HEAL Palestine provides essential mental health therapy and psychosocial support to hundreds of traumatized children across Gaza, including orphans enrolled in our new Orphan Sponsorship Program. This program is designed to deliver holistic care to children who have lost parents, homes, and a sense of safety, addressing not only their physical needs but their emotional and psychological well-being.

In southern Gaza, HEAL-supported mental health sessions offer orphaned children rare moments of calm, care, and emotional security. Within these safe spaces, children are encouraged to express their feelings, rebuild trust, and begin processing the trauma they have endured. For many, these sessions represent the only consistent support available in an environment marked by loss and instability.

Caregivers and guardians participate alongside the children, learning how compassion, patience, and trauma-informed care can play a critical role in healing. By equipping caregivers with practical tools and understanding, HEAL helps ensure that support continues beyond each session and becomes part of a child’s daily life.

Through sustained mental health services and community-based care, HEAL Palestine is working to restore dignity, resilience, and hope for children who have endured unimaginable hardship. Healing takes time, but with the right support, every child deserves the chance to feel safe again.
