PADF works to respond to these populations by offering support in the areas of humanitarian assistance, shelter, health and nutrition, psychosocial assistance, education, livelihoods, protection and legal support, and more. We work with local community organizations, government entities, and the private sector to foster a hemisphere of opportunities in which everyone can access basic resources and rights. With its community partners, PADF listens to the priorities of vulnerable populations to provide solutions that are sustainable, comprehensive, and address the evolving needs of the persons of concern that we support. From emergency humanitarian assistance in the Darién Province of Panama, to science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) education programs for students in Peru, to business mentorship and vocational training for adults in Aruba and Curaçao, PADF strives to provide support services that are effective, are participatory, and create sustainable change.
