I suggest you try to supply refugees with music instruments, even just percussion, so that they can at least have some stress relieving activities on their travels. See our website.
Thankful for helpful resources as i coordinate volunteers in refugee camps in northern Greece.
I plan to be in Thessaloniki to help in some capacity from around January 10 to January 22. I have a masters’ degree in Mental Health Counseling and have worked with at-risk teens and their parents for over 20 years. I am now retired and volunteer as a mediator for court-ordered cases. I would love to use my skills in any way you think would be of help during my stay. Please let me know if there is availability for me to offer my services. With much appreciation, Joyce Muktarian
