About us

Non-Governmental Organization “Resource Center “MAIBUTTIA” (Maibuttia) was founded in the April 2014 as a reaction towards the recent developments in Ukraine by a team of psychologists to disseminate information about social and psychological care, including the military servicemen – combatants and provide social and psychological adaptation, employment and retraining on new civilian professions for military servicemen released from the Armed Forces of Ukraine and other military formations created in accordance with the legislation of Ukraine and their families.
Our experts are formed by a team of patriots of Ukraine many of whom are professional psychologists and trainers of various psychological schools and directions. For about two years, Maibuttia supported soldiers – members of ATO by working with the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine and the National Guard of Ukraine.
Half a year ago, the organization’s leadership has developed a program of psychological support to mobilized military servicemen which helped them to strengthen their combat readiness and prevented the PTSD. The Ministry of Defence and the National Guard highly assessed the provided assistance and the program. Therefore, within the last half a year, we became actively involved in providing psychological support to all combatants in part on a voluntary basis and charitable contributions from Ukrainian population.
It became obvious that it was not enough to provide psychological support to soldiers before being sent to the combat zone, but also to support them during the times of their rotations in places of permanent deployment and recovery of combat readiness. Thus, Maibuttia created the decompression program (quarantine after the withdrawal of troops from combat zones during 3-5 days) in cooperation with the MoD and NGU.
During the entire demobilization of military servicemen in 2015, our trainers and psychologists have been actively involved in carrying out activities for psychological rehabilitation of released ATO members and their families.
Conducts methodological work, develops programs, manuals, guidelines for military personnel, military psychologists and military commanders. Experts of Maibuttia constantly participate in scientific conferences and have scientific publications in professional journals.
Psychologists and trainers of Maibuttia, representing different psychological schools, use the most effective methods of psychological work of their shools which improves the effectiveness of our work. They also constantly improve their skills on psychological work with combatants by learning from domestic and foreign experts. During about the recent two years, psychologists and trainers of Maibuttia has worked with about 7000 thousands of  soldiers of the Armed Forces and NGU. Thus, the Resource Center “MAIBUTTIA” has sufficient methodical resources and practical experience to carry out projects on psychological support to participants in the ATO and psychological rehabilitation of combatants.
We work for the healthy future of Ukraine!
