We help Red Cross and Red Crescent National Societies develop the capacity to provide services at the community level in areas affected by catastrophic events and armed conflicts.
Here you can find resources assisting the Red Cross Red Crescent Movement in the implementation of the Roadmap, Resolution and Policy on Mental Health and Psychosocial Support.
Technical support encompasses various types of activities and tasks such as supplying inputs to guidelines, defining intervention strategies, providing training and supporting the National Societies’ PSS focal points by responding to different types of inquiries.
A key to organizing mental health and psychosocial support is to develop a layered system of complementary support that meets the needs of different groups.
