“I Thought No One Needed Me. But They Accepted Me”: the Story of 14-Year-Old Yaroslav

He had arrived from the town of Svatove, now temporarily occupied by Russia, and didn’t know how others would accept him. Now, this 14-year-old boy laughs with his new friends, captures moments of camp life with his camera, and wishes the two weeks of Voices Camp would never end.
