USA Today (3/5, Collins) reports that as the Russia-Ukraine war “enters its second year,” a five-month-old, “first-of-its-kind mental health center in” the city Lviv “shows how Ukraine is making mental health a big-picture priority in the midst of” the conflict. The article adds, “Officially known as the Lviv Mental Health Center, the 5,000-square-foot renovated space offers free and low-cost services from about a dozen professional psychotherapists and psychiatrists,” and its “goal is to treat wounded Ukrainian soldiers and locals suffering from PTSD and other stress-related conditions brought on by the war.”
