In light of the horrific war in the Ukraine and the migration issues along the US border, PPSC (Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy Study Center) mobilized to form the PPSC Refugee Support Project, a group of volunteers throughout the mental health and lay community, to provide crisis and support services to refugees, their families and service providers impacted. Volunteers in the PPSC RSP fall into several categories: Licensed Clinicians/Therapists, Translators, Asylum Advocates and Administrative Volunteers.
- Asylum Advocates will donate 1+ hours of pro bono support to referrals made to the PPSC program, other individuals or organizations with whom the PPSC RSP partners or affiliates, or referrals made within the PPSC RSP volunteer group.
- All advocates will be licensed in the mental health field and will be referred for asylum-specific training through Physicians for Human Rights.
- Upon completion of the training and receipt of affidavit of eligibility, advocates will be linked to referrals and an immigration attorney through Physician for Human Rights to assist refugees with their asylum application process.
