As a result, families are now able to remain in quarantine without interruption. Compliance with movement restrictions has improved noticeably, reducing the likelihood of community exposure.
In several areas, local teams report that households receiving regular food support are significantly more cooperative with health guidelines.
This intervention is proving to be a critical link between humanitarian support and disease containment.
Your support is ensuring that families do not have to choose between safety and survival—and that is making a measurable difference in stopping the spread of Ebola.
