About the program

ICF provides support to vulnerable children with disabilities, through a medical clinic in the under-served city of Fallujah. This clinic is housed in an old government building that was originally donated to an international organization, which has since ceased operations in Iraq. 

This clinic provides support to children with a wide variety of disabilities, from mild to severe. Common conditions presented include paralysis (various stages), social and behavioural conditions including severe autism spectrum disorders, hearing and visual impairment, birth defects due to family inter-marriage, and disabilities as a result of injury.

Treatment involves general health consultations, physical rehabilitation, psychosocial support and in cases where there is a need for more advanced treatment or interventions, referrals to governmental or international institutions where children can get the necessary help and support they require. 

The clinic also provides employment for local community members, including doctors, nurses, physical therapists, social workers, cleaners, and communications and administration staff.
