Crisis Resilience Initiative is a women-led national humanitarian organization helping the vulnerable of the world's poorest, youngest people — one community at a time.
Crisis Resilience Initiative (CRI) is a women-led, not-for-profit national humanitarian aid organization registered with the Relief and Rehabilitation Commission (RRC) of the Republic of South Sudan under Registration No. 849 RRC.
We implement both development and emergency programs targeting victims of man-made and natural crisis in selected communities across South Sudan. Our success is embedded in a motivated technical team — at head office and in the field — and in strong partnerships with communities, government and donors including RRF-IOM and UNICEF.
From protecting children and women in Unity State, to strengthening food security in Jonglei, to responding to gender-based violence in Upper Nile, we go where the need is greatest and stay until resilience takes root.
