What does it look like to protect the world’s most vulnerable from the novel coronavirus? Go inside IRC coronavirus preparedness and response programs, launched in over 40 countries.

The IRC opened its locally-funded office in Miami in 1960 in response to the Cuban Revolution and, over the decades, has served over 25,000 refugees, asylees, survivors of human trafficking and other vulnerable populations in South Florida. Due to nationally reduced refugee admissions, the IRC ended its refugee resettlement program in Miami in 2018. Although its resettlement program concluded in 2018, the IRC in Miami continues to serve the community by providing holistic, trauma-informed services to survivors of human trafficking and unaccompanied children and their families.

The country is facing an economic and hunger crisis that could kill more people than the past twenty years of war.
