Refuge Support
Home Spot Short-Term Project
Athens | 11 days
Come help meet the daily physical, social, and emotional needs of the refugees that are not being met elsewhere. At Home Spot, refugees are given an opportunity to develop their social skills outside the camps which can elevate their sense of dignity and self-worth. Refugees receive training that provide them with skills which will allow them to integrate with the local community, as well as emotional support and counselling to deal with the myriad of challenges they face.
