From the American People
The ACAP II project will build upon the success of ACAP to assist Afghan families suffering loss, injury, or battle damage caused by U.S. or coalition military operations against insurgent groups. The project will immediately respond to the unique circumstances of affected families with appropriate emergency aid and tailored livelihood assistance. Assistance may be in the form of packages of essential goods, medical referrals, vocational training and referral support, business startup support, and referrals of victims to other complementary assistance programs. Special consideration is given to the needs of primary breadwinners and women beneficiaries. To help ensure that networks are in place for the accurate and efficient delivery of assistance to beneficiaries, USAID will work closely with government entities at the sub-national level, particularly the Ministry of Labor, Social Affairs, Martyrs and Disabled, and other key stakeholders such as the Afghan Independent Human Rights Commission, United Nations, U.S. Government agencies, NATO forces, and Afghan civilians to ensure timely, responsive, and coordinated efforts improve the accurate and efficient delivery of assistance.
