| Hi jay, I wanted to compile some information for you on the crisis in Syria. I know it can be difficult to keep track of all the information out there. Things have really deteriorated quickly there in the last few months, and especially in the last few days. What has been a devastating time for civilians in the region has the potential to become much worse. -Daniel Daniel Wordsworth, President *********************************************** CRISIS IN SYRIA *Summary of the Crisis* The conflict is now 2 ½ years old. Linked to the wider Arab Spring movement, nationwide anti-government protests evolved into an armed rebellion. The violence has displaced millions of people from their homes and communities and has made accessing food, water and other essentials increasingly difficult for Syrian civilians.

ARC has joined forces with Jordan-based Questscope to provide support to Syrian refugees. The ARC and Questscope teams are working together to build programs providing shelter, water and sanitation, violence prevention, and protection services to people who have fled their homes. We are also assisting QuestScope as they offer informal education and mentoring programs for at-risk children in Za’atari Camp, the largest refugee camp in Jordan.
