The Center is led by Major General (Ret.) Vladyslav Klochkov – a military strategist, researcher, and expert in veterans' rehabilitation.
Vladyslav Klochkov on the Center's mission:
"Opening the Center is our duty to those who risked their lives for Ukraine. We don't just treat PTSD; we help veterans return to life. The next step should be to create a network of regional centers that support not only military personnel but also their families."

The psychological consequences of war can undermine the Ukrainian economy and society.
Without quality rehabilitation, there will be increased unemployment, social instability, family problems, and crime.
