Thousands of children and families in DCI project locations are in immediate danger from poverty caused by lost family income. DCI has been actively working to combat corona crisis in all its project areas. We have done the following so far,

1. DCI’s first response was to initiate public awareness campaigns by distributing leaflets describing, the health crisis and safety precautions. Our field officers were trained immediately and are working as contacts to answer questions, and provide guidance.
2. We distributed PPE, masks, and gloves to approximately 1,200 doctors and nurses.
3. More than 500 families were supplied with survival packs containing rice, flour, lentil, potatoes, onion, oil, salt, soap, and mask.
