A growing humanitarian crisis in Northern Central America continues to force thousands of people to displace in search for safety every year. Violence in Honduras is at levels akin to war zones. The International Rescue Committee serves individuals and families who are at risk of violence and displacement in Honduras with programming to satisfy their most urgent needs as well as working with communities and families to mitigate and prevent violence.

Each day, families hope to cross the border from Mexico to the United States in search of safety. Staying is not a safe option – and the IRC is supporting programs in Mexican border towns to respond.
