ADRA Syria works with vulnerable and displaced communities affected by the country’s ongoing conflict and provides humanitarian aid. The main objectives of ADRA Syria’s programs are to promote long-term development initiatives, including education; livelihood programs; and water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) interventions, to help communities recover and rebuild while also providing emergency relief, such as food and shelter. ADRA International, with its main office in the United States, oversees the operations of ADRA Syria.
