Headline Psychological and Social Work with Survivor and Affected Families in Liberia

Caption Description A social worker from Action Contre la Faim (ACF) is seen here talking to members of the local community of King Robert Farm, a suburb of Monrovia in Liberia. The Ebola outbreak in West Africa has produced increasing circles of victims beyond the infected and the dead. Survivors, families, children, and health workers are dealing with the stress and trauma left behind by the disease. Psychological and social support is an approach that helps victims of Ebola to cope with stress and fosters resilience in communities and individuals affected. A team of 4 social workers and a supervisor from the Action Contre la Faim (ACF) visit twice a week residents in some areas on Montserado including here in King Robert Farm to meet the only survivor in this village and affected families. The UN Mission for Ebola Emergency Response (UNMEER) has provided ACF 9 cars to help it with logistics in reaching communities for contact tracing work and social work.
