Mission and programs · 2022

Primary exempt purpose

We are a nonprofit organization committed to provide humanitarian services to vulnerable communities globally. Specifically, our goal is to provide Mental Health (MH) and Psycho-social Support (PSS) services and to build resilience among refugees and disenfranchised communities in Africa and the Middle East. We will hire team members both in the US and locally to conduct these activities. We will provide psycho-education and awareness sessions, and psycho-social support in small groups. In addition, we will provide support to individuals to help them develop coping skills as they work through their traumas. We will also provide factual educational sessions to address social stigma of seeking mental health services. Our activities will be mainly funded by us writing grant proposals in response to RFPs and to Foundations to provide the funding for all our activities.

  • Mental Health and Psychosocial Support (MHPSS) Programs conducted during our FY2022, between 8/1/2022 and 7/31/2023: more than 33 support groups, servicing more than 778 individuals (beneficiaries); thereof 84% children/teenagers and 16% adults (mothers). Further information can be found under our Donor Update Report June, 2023 (https://reachingacrossborders.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/RAB-June-2023-Update-Report.pdf) and/or the upcoming annual report on our website( https://reachingacrossborders.org/).

    Expenses $42,922

  • Withheld by Nonprofiteer: this text may name a private individual.

    Expenses $830

  • We also do do case management. For example, for the first half of calendar year 2023, we have been closely following 8 cases that we have referred because they are high-risk and they have needed multiple services. The issues that these beneficiaries were facing were: Gender Based Violence (GBV), sexual harassment, and attempted suicide. We have referred these beneficiaries to our partner organizations, but because there is just one psychiatrist to whom we can refer (and who is part-time!), the appointment wait times are very long and our beneficiaries cannot pay the transportation costs to go to their psychiatric consultations and psychology appointments. Our partner organizations include: HAND HUman Aid and Development, Damma-Hug, MAPS Multi-Aid Programs, Amel Association, ... (Any expenses for this are included in our item 1.)

As filed on the 2022 return. A text marked withheld matched a screen for wording that may name a private individual, such as an honorific or "in memory of". Most of what it withholds names no one; it is withheld so that what does is never shown.
