USAID Announces New Rehabilitation Initiative for Ukraine

The United States, through USAID, announced today an initial allocation of $13 million to strengthen the capacity of physical rehabilitation systems in Ukraine. The new USAID Rehabilitation for Ukraine initiative, or "Rehab4U," will increase access to services and assistive technology, and promote inclusion and participation of persons with disabilities in their communities and the country's recovery.

The number of Ukrainians requiring quality rehabilitation care has increased dramatically due to the ongoing war. Rehab4U will promote a resilient and inclusive rehabilitation system. The project will be implemented across 15 regions in Ukraine to ensure nationwide impact.

The United States remains committed to supporting the Ukrainian people through the provision of urgently needed assistance, saving lives, meeting immediate needs, and planning for the future. This ongoing commitment reflects our support to Ukraine's sovereignty and prosperity.
