3 fears that most often prevent children and youth from leaving the occupation

The 3 fears that most often prevent children and young people from leaving the occupation are the fear of mobilization, the fear of being left without documents, and the fear of losing their home.

For years, Russia has been fueling these myths so that people remain under the control of the Russian Federation. But the truth is different: departure is possible, and after returning, a person is not left alone with challenges.

Within the framework of the initiative of the President of Ukraine Bring Kids Back UA and in cooperation with partners, children and youth can receive:
– assistance with departure
– legal support
– support with documents
– consultations on education
– assistance with adaptation after return

In the carousel, we debunk the most common myths about leaving the TOT and explain where to look for proven help.

If you are just planning to leave, contact us. As part of the Bring Kids Back UA initiative, they help children leave for free, confidentially, and with full support — even if they don’t have documents. A safe route is selected for everyone.

If you are not ready to enroll immediately, preparatory programs are available, including a “zero course” to brush up on your knowledge of the Ukrainian studies component, adapt, and calmly prepare for your studies.

You do not have to go through admission and study on your own — there is support and guidance at every stage.

If you need information about admission to Ukrainian universities, the application procedure, or educational opportunities, contact organizations and state institutions at the following link: https://url.zp.edu.ua/aoxoa
