It is based on their work with Syrian refugee children in Lebanon and offers guidance for mental health services worldwide, especially in low-resource settings. The resource includes tips on safety protocols, keeping kids engaged, and handling challenges during phone therapy. Services are encouraged to adapt these guidelines for their specific needs.
