Promoting Positive Future for Families
Enhancing Family Wellbeing through Psychosocial Support in Tulkarem
Since December 2024, PSD has been implementing a comprehensive psychosocial support program in partnership with Catholic Relief Services (CRS), targeting families in conflict-affected areas. The project, rooted in evidence-based methodologies, focuses on strengthening family relationships, improving emotional resilience, and supporting the mental wellbeing of adolescents and their caregivers. Sessions are delivered through two tailored approaches: the TAU (Treatment As Usual) model, which focuses on adults, and the PPFF (Promoting Positive Future for Families) model, which engages entire families in structured, participatory group sessions.
Community-Centered Impact
To date, the program has reached over 160 families in Tulkarem and Nour Shams refugee camp. Implemented by trained facilitators and psychosocial specialists, the sessions provide a safe space for families to explore communication, stress management, and emotional support. By integrating culturally sensitive practices and working closely with local communities, the project continues to build healthier family dynamics and foster psychosocial wellbeing in areas heavily impacted by displacement and hardship.
