Natural disasters wreak havoc on communities, leaving behind a trail of destruction, loss, and trauma. While the physical damage is often evident, it’s the emotional scars that can remain hidden but run the deepest. Among the most vulnerable victims of these traumatic events are the ‘Silent Sufferers’ ,children. In the aftermath of natural disasters, orphans become some of the most vulnerable victims, silently enduring profound emotional scars. Recent statistics indicate that a significant number of orphans in India are exposed to these traumatic events, putting them at an elevated risk of psychological distress, including anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

Educational disruptions, often exacerbated by disaster-related factors, hinder their development, and long-term physical health issues may arise from the stress and emotional toll.

Schools are essential for stability, mental health support, and nutrition, making their loss even more detrimental

For instance, a study published in the Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry revealed that orphaned children exposed to natural disasters had an increased likelihood of experiencing physical health problems, including chronic conditions like asthma.
