Survivor Relief Centres provide lifesaving psychosocial support to people affected by the war
Survivor Relief Centres were created to respond to the challenges of the ongoing war. Internally displaced people, those who have fled active combat zones or Russian occupied territories, local residents — anyone who needs assistance can get help here.
Ukrainians can come to the Centres with any question related to the war. Qualified specialists provide the necessary social, psychological, legal or informational support in a comprehensive and confidential manner — and all in one place.
Since the outbreak of full-scale war, Ukraine has faced unprecedented levels of violence. However, not all of the trauma caused by the war is visible to society. The United Nations estimates that the number of people who have suffered sexual violence during the war is 10-20 times higher than the official figures. Specialists at the Centres provide comprehensive, specialized assistance in cases of conflict-related sexual violence, and ensure that survivors have access to the support they need.

Where are the Centres located?
The centers operate in 12 cities across Ukraine: Zaporizhzhia, Lviv, Dnipro, Kyiv, Chernivtsi, Mukachevo, Kropyvnytskyi, Odesa, Poltava, Kharkiv, and Sumy. Additionally, three mobile Survivor Relief Centres are operating in the Kyiv, Chernihiv, Sumy, Kharkiv, and Kherson regions.
In April 2024, the official launch of three mobile Survivor Relief Centres took place, enabling residents of areas no longer under Russian occupation and frontline regions to receive qualified psychological, social, and legal support. The mobile Survivor Relief Centres were acquired with the support of the governments of Spain and Belgium and are fully equipped to provide consultations.
