How You Can Help Now

For nearly 30 years, the eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) has been ravaged by conflict, with armed militias fighting over mineral wealth and millions of Congolese—especially women and children—suffering the consequences, including widespread sexual violence. This year, the violence has escalated dramatically. The heavily armed M23 militia, backed by Rwanda, has seized control of the region’s two largest cities and surrounding areas, cutting off our healthcare partners from the country’s banking system and government services. With no funding for staff salaries or essential medical supplies, clinics have been left vulnerable—some even attacked or vandalized.

While we remain committed to coordinating and advancing mental health training and services, the urgent humanitarian crisis has forced us to pivot. Right now, we are working to secure the procurement and delivery of PPE and infection prevention supplies for our partners’ frontline healthcare workers and community responders in eastern DRC as these facilities have been cut off from critical resources.
