Abstract

The article introduces the existing concepts of the resilience and offers the results of informational and psychological support of women and children of Kharkiv region for their psychological stabilization and recovery. It is shown that despite the relevance of the direction of development of resilience of the individual, neither the methodological nor the practical context of the concept has a clear structure and meaningful content. This is a particular difficulty for Ukrainian educators, pedagogues and psychologists, who are the "first echelon" of contact specialists, who, like medical or social workers, meet the "pain of war" in all the variety of personal stories of their students' families every day. The publication provides key areas of possible informational and psychological influence that pedagogues can apply in their interaction with students and their parents. The author offers the following strategies of influence: positive thinking, social support, self-efficacy, the use of coping strategies and psychotherapeutic help. The specified principles of psychological support were applied in work with women and children of Kharkiv Region during the summer vacation. Throughout the program, the resilience of women increased by about 10 percent, the stress level decreased 30-50 percent , and the subjective feeling of anxiety decreased. Results of psychological support of children were: team interaction, companionship; psychological relaxation, normalization of sleep and entire daily routine; mastering the skills of processing stressful memories. There is an expectation that the transferred difficult circumstances will not pass into the space of post-traumatic disorders due to their quick processing and neutralization.
