Our girls are learning to recognize and say how they feel. This seems simple, but it is not for girls who have suffered prolonged trauma before arriving at DOK. They need to be able to recognize how they feel, be able to say it, and then know how to manage those emotions in a healthy way. All of this is part of the TBRI (Trust-Based Relational Intervention) training that Carmen is receiving from the Orphanos Foundation. In April, Carmen will need to return to Colombia for the second phase of this training. If you can help with the cost of Carmen’s airline ticket from Bolivia to Colombia, please send a note to [email protected].
