Purpose\/ objective of the position<\/strong><\/p>\n

INTERSOS has been present on Lesvos since September 2020, when an emergency team was deployed after Moria\u2019s camp fire to assess the most urgent needs of the affected population and to set up an efficient crisis response.
As an urgent need for Mental Health support to vulnerable women was identified, early in 2021 INTERSOS began a Mental Health and Psychosocial support intervention aimed at providing comprehensive psychosocial care to vulnerable women residing in Mavrovouni\u00a0RIC and to enhance the general mental health response. Currently, INTERSOS MHPSS intervention targets women who belong to vulnerable groups presenting signs of psychological distress, who have survived gender-based violence and\/or are the sole or
primary caregivers of a dependent family member. The MHPSS INTERSOS Team, composed of psychologists, Case Managers and Protection Officers\u00a0ensure that the mental health programme adheres\u00a0to a holistic and rights-based approach.\u00a0The aim of the intervention, in the frame of full case management support, is to provide comprehensive psychosocial care to the persons, through individual and group sessions along with high-quality referrals of the beneficiaries to other services and support.<\/p>\n
