In the US, IOCC serves survivors of natural and human-caused disasters, both short term and later—from emotional and spiritual care in the early days, to cleanup and rebuilding later.
IOCC recently delivered specialized medical equipment to a cardiology hospital in the western Ukrainian region of Zakarpattia that is serving both locals and internally displaced people.
Frontliners, who train with IOCC to provide emotional and spiritual care in disaster situations, are often the first teams that IOCC puts on the ground after a US storm.
Group awareness sessions for people dealing with the effects of displacement, conflict, and other traumas are part of IOCC’s psychosocial support work in Syria.
