Reaching Across Borders Inc

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.

Reaching Across Border's ("RAB") mission is to engage with vulnerable communities, especially through women-led organizations and refugee-led initiatives, to foster holistic economic empowerment rooted in social enterpreneurship. RAB supports individuals in earning a dignified income, developing practical skills and building emotional resilience. Through trauma-informed, culturally-grounded mental health (MH) and psycho-social support (PSS), RAB strives to illuminate a path toward healing, dignity, and hope for displaced and marginalized populations. Rooted from a moral imperative and driven by a commitment to social justice, RAB is dedicated to reaching across borders with compassion, equity, and solidarity. In addition, RAB builds strategic partnerships with NGOs around the world that align with RABs mission to deliver critical services, such as education, housing, and humanitarian relief, to refugees and marginalized populations.
