Founded in 1933 at the request of Albert Einstein, the IRC’s mission is to help people whose lives and livelihoods are shattered by conflict and disaster to survive, recover, and gain control of their future.

Through 28 regional offices in cities across the United States, the IRC also helps refugees resettle in the US and become self-sufficient.
