KYDA POSTER PRESENTATION IN UAPC20

Shared by Joanna (ISSUP staff) - 23 April 2021
Family therapy is that treatment that is aimed at addressing specific issues affecting health and functioning. This is always very helpful to the families going through a very difficult period just like the families KYDA Rehabilitation Centre is working with, which are alcoholic families.  KYDA Organization social workers and counselors always do the activity since they have got experience in child protection and alcohol harm, behavioral problems and domestic violence in line with substance use.

مارچ 2020 کے اوائل میں دنیا کووڈ-19 کی وبا سے متاثر ہوئی تھی جس نے دنیا بھر میں لاکھوں افراد کی زندگیوں کو متاثر کیا ہے۔

کورونا وائرس کی بیماری (کووڈ 19) ایک متعدی بیماری ہے جو ایک نئے وائرس کی وجہ سے ہوتی ہے اور بنیادی طور پر متاثرہ شخص کے کھانسنے یا چھینکنے پر اس کے رابطے سے پھیلتی ہے۔ یہ اس وقت بھی پھیلتا ہے جب کوئی شخص کسی ایسی سطح یا شے کو چھوتا ہے جس پر وائرس ہوتا ہے ، اور پھر ان کی آنکھوں ، ناک یا منہ کو چھوتا ہے۔
