Instead of days full of joy and play, children witness violence and family breakdown. The traumas they carry with them from early childhood then translate into instability in adult life. They have difficulty trusting those around them and themselves. They do not know how to build healthy relationships. The scars on children's souls are not visible, but they usually have a more significant impact on their lives than a visible disability. Caring for them is essential. The Agata Centre helps victims of domestic violence and people who experience various forms of psychological or physical violence based on their age or gender. It offers therapy and legal consultations, and has a crisis apartment at a confidential address.
