The educational series is dedicated to understanding the experience of captivity, its psychological consequences, and ways to properly support released prisoners and their families.
The series gradually reveals what a person experiences during isolation and after release, how to regain a sense of safety, avoid stigmatization, and speak out without re-traumatizing. Special attention is paid to the system of post-isolation support, the role of professionals, communities, and loved ones, as well as practical guidelines for help.
The series also supports those who help others by offering tools for self-help, burnout prevention, and mutual support.
