An overview of ANERA's major health initiatives in the Middle East

Take a look at this overview (PDF) of ANERA's major health programs.

In the face of constant conflict and economic decline, health care providers strain to maintain supplies and keep current with ever-advancing medical practices. Parents struggle to keep their children well-fed and healthy. Clinics are overburdened with clients needing care.

American Near East Refugee Aid (ANERA) began its work in the Middle East by providing emergency relief immediately after the 1967 Arab-Israeli War. Today, after 40 years, ANERA continues its legacy of assisting local health care providers to deliver quality services to their communities.

We are building health clinics, training health care workers, combating malnutrition, and promoting doable actions that people can employ to protect their health and well-being.

At all levels, ANERA is ensuring that people increasingly have access to quality health care and a healthier life.
