The International Rescue Committee (IRC) in Wichita is working alongside communities and partners to support Afghans living in Kansas and ensuring a warm welcome for those families soon to arrive in the coming weeks and months.

The novel coronavirus, or COVID-19, continues to spread globally and has reached countries with weak health systems that are less prepared to combat the disease.The International Rescue Committee is ramping up our response.

Along with special guests from Prosperity Now, the IRC examines how the recent stimulus acts, including the Cares Act, provides reliefs for working families struggling during the COVID-19 pandemic.

From Friday, March 13 and until further notice, the IRC’s offices in Tallahassee and Miami are closed and our staff is working remotely in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. We are adapting and continuing to serve our clients during this difficult time.
