ESI has developed 18 early childhood safe spaces for young children, 7 in Moldova, 7 in Israel, 2 in Prague, one in Lviv, Ukraine and one in Krakow, Poland. Our staff, mostly women refugees from Ukraine with relevant experience, receive professional development and support in dealing with challenges that arise. The young children’s safe space is also a base where community activities for mothers are organized – such as family visits to museums or hikes, and complementary services like legal advice and language studies. Our organization now includes 50 staff members, the majority of which are refugee mothers from Ukraine. We’ve had over 5000 children participate in our early childhood safe spaces, and thousands of families have received our services. Daily, we have approximately 500 children join our activities and benefit from the early childhood educational and social services we provide.
