Coronavirus response: Supporting at-risk children
World Vision’s experience responding to disease outbreaks began in the early 2000s with the HIV and AIDS crisis in Africa. We’ve learned that infectious diseases like these put children at risk, even when they don’t get ill themselves.

That’s why supporting children impacted by the secondary effects of the pandemic is one of four key objectives of our coronavirus response.
