International Medical Corps
www.imcworldwide.org
International Medical Corps is a global humanitarian nonprofit
organization dedicated to saving lives and relieving suffering
through health care training and relief and development programs.
Established in 1984 by volunteer doctors and nurses, IMC is a
private, voluntary, nonpolitical, nonsectarian organization. Its
mission is to improve the quality of life through health
interventions and related activities that build local capacity in
areas worldwide where few organizations dare to serve. By offering
training and health care to local populations and medical
assistance to people at highest risk, and with the flexibility to
respond rapidly to emergency situations, IMC rehabilitates
devastated health care systems and helps bring them back to
self-reliance.
IMC staff and volunteers come from all over the world and are
united by a common goal: to save lives and alleviate the suffering
of those affected by war, disease, and devastation. To help meet
this goal, IMC places special emphasis on training local medical
personnel in the skills and knowledge needed to rebuild their own
health care systems. IMC provides extensive, hands-on training in
the full range of health and managerial skills needed to restore
self-reliance. Those who train with IMC, including thousands of
female health care workers, go on to teach others in their
communities, thus expanding IMC's legacy of care.
In the aftermath of violent conflicts and natural disasters, IMC
provides emergency interventions for vulnerable populations and
makes lasting improvemnts to devastated health care systems.
