The International Rescue Committee Europe is part of the IRC global network which has its headquarters in New York, London, and Berlin. The IRC is on the ground in more than 40 countries providing emergency relief, relocating refugees, and rebuilding lives in the wake of disaster. Through over 20 regional offices in cities across the United States, we also help refugees resettle in the US and become self-sufficient.
