The International Rescue Committee has deployed a team of veteran first responders to deliver urgent assistance in Haiti. The IRC has started working with partners to set up healing, recreational, interim education and family tracing programs for children and provide them with food and water. We'll also repair, re-equip and re-supply health clinics run by local partners and restore clean water and sanitation at the centers. We are initiating programs to protect women and girls from sexual violence and respond to needs of survivors. A "cash for work" program is also being launched aimed at clearing rubble, making repairs and giving Haitians money to buy needed items.
