We have a number of projects underway to support our mission.

Educate Yourself! is our online education portal and contains a library of lesson plans in a variety of formats.   Your donation to this project will go toward maintaining and growing our enrichment center and adding to our technology driven, interactive map as well as help us to attract the talent to develop original material and lesson plans.

Connections is our Networking and Database Toolkit.  Our Treatment Center Database is an integral part of our effort to help former child soldiers. This database will list and connect all the organizations globally so they can share resources and best practices as well as increase their exposure so they are able to generate more funding for their programs. Your donation to our treatment center database will enable us to build the most comprehensive list of treatment centers and keep them actively involved with each other and the public.

Multimedia projects include our project “Returning from the Front Lines: a Program Analysis of Mental Health Treatments for Former Child Soldiers.” The objective of this research project is to identify and evaluate traditional and non-traditional mental health interventions targeting child soldiers currently being implemented in the field. Your donation will allow us to complete section two: a literature review of the grey literature and academic literature, and section three: interviews and evaluations of treatment programs.  Other projects to support include Listen Up! the interview project and Trial Updates.

The Mandala House Project is a documentary film CSRF is co-producing following partner Mandala House and the amazing work of Lenny Williams training trauma therapy through yoga to former child soldiers, instructors, and therapists in DRC, Uganda and other countries.  Award-winning director Karim Chobog of War Child with Emmanuel Jal will be filming her work.  Support this project by helping fund a pilot of her work by Karim.
