In our latest newsletter, we spotlight Grow Strong Foundation’s recent humanitarian efforts from September 13th to 16th, 2024, in flood-affected camps in Maiduguri. Key interventions focused on child protection, gender-based violence (GBV) prevention, and psychosocial support. Our teams reached over 1,800 individuals across Bakasi, Galtimari Primary School, and Dalori Camps, providing essential safety messages, referrals for health and dignity kits, and family tracing and reunification services. Additionally, we facilitated psychosocial support for 326 children and addressed emerging GBV concerns.
This issue also highlights ongoing needs assessments and our plans to continue strengthening the referral pathways for critical services, ensuring long-term recovery and protection for the most vulnerable populations in these communities.
