About Catholic Relief Services

Catholic Relief Services (CRS) is the official international humanitarian agency of the Catholic community in the United States. CRS works to save, protect, and transform lives in need in more than 100 countries, without regard to race, religion or nationality. CRS has been present in Jerusalem, West Bank, and Gaza (JWBG) since 1961 and currently supports programs in the sectors of humanitarian relief, livelihoods, civil society strengthening, and social justice promotion through its field offices in Jerusalem, Gaza, and Bethlehem. For further information about CRS CRS features a dynamic psychosocial support (PSS) portfolio that reflects the organization’s commitment to increasing vulnerable Gazan families’ access to quality PSS programming. Currently, a BMZ-funded initiative promotes child and caregiver wellbeing in Gaza and Middle Area. CRS is also partnering with a university to pilot a new PSS methodology based on emotional security theory and is enhancing organizational sustainability for local community-based organizations (CBOs) supporting PSS. In response to the profound and evolving psychosocial needs in Gaza, CRS is planning to focus future programming on meeting the distinct need for PSS services among adolescents and their caregivers and addressing outstanding protection concerns within their families and communities. Future projects will leverage CRS’ established, trusted presence and build upon existing community relationships.
