| | Iraq Refugee Protection and AssistanceThe Bureau of Population, Refugees and Migration (PRM) has led the State Department's efforts to expand humanitarian opportunites for UN agencies and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) to respond to humanitarian needs of Iraqi refugees in the region. USAID programs support thousands of internally displaced persons (IDPs) inside Iraq and other at-risk beneficiaries through activities such as provision of emergency relief supplies, water systems, and infrastructure rehabilitation for host communities, small-scale livelihood activities, and support for mobile medical teams and emergency health. Almost $1 billion in humanitarian assistance for displaced Iraqis in Iraq and neighboring states has been given by the U.S. Government since 2003.
