On Nov 7th, the Israeli Immigration and Absorption Ministry held a ceremony and awarded prizes to honour five outstanding individuals, new immigrants who “made a significant contribution to society and community during the war.”

Among the five prize winners is Dr. Alexander Lerner, an orthopaedics surgeon who moved to Israel from Belarus and has spent the war repairing soldiers’ wounded limbs. Our deepest admiration goes to Dr. Lerner and his exceptional work.

Whether it is physical or emotional, trauma is devastating, The difficulty with wounded spirits (rather than wounded limbs) is that emotional wounds are not always visible. At Emotionaid, it is our mission to speak about emotional distress and help prevent it.
