The June 2026 earthquakes in Venezuela have left vulnerable families facing damaged homes, displacement and disrupted access to essential services. Children are particularly at risk of emotional distress, interrupted education and family separation. SOS Children's Villages will support affected children and families with emergency assistance, child protection, psychosocial support, educational recovery and family strengthening, prioritizing those facing the greatest risks.
The June 2026 earthquakes affected homes, schools, health services and essential infrastructure in several areas of Venezuela. Families may face displacement, loss of basic goods, disrupted education and increased protection risks. Children are particularly vulnerable to emotional distress and family separation. The project will respond to immediate needs while supporting early recovery and family stability.
This project will address the effects of the earthquake by providing vulnerable children and families with essential assistance, child protection, psychosocial support, educational support and family strengthening. It will prioritize households facing displacement, loss of basic resources or risk of family separation. By combining immediate support with recovery activities, the project will help families regain stability, protect children and strengthen their capacity to recover.
The project will help vulnerable families recover while reducing the risk of long-term family separation and child protection concerns. By strengthening caregivers, restoring education and routines, and connecting families with protection and support services, it will contribute to safer, more resilient families and communities. The intervention will also help identify children requiring longer-term support and connect them to appropriate services.
