Finding Aid
Subcollection 3: Subject Matter

After July 1, 1921, JDC shifted the focus of its activities from emergency relief to rehabilitation and reconstruction. A new operational system was developed, and five functional departments were organized to target different areas of need: childcare, cultural and religious institutions and programs, medico-sanitary improvements, economic reconstruction, and refugee work. This sub-collection describes the activities in each of these areas. It also documents the efforts of JDC’s Landsmannschaften Bureau, which served as an intermediary to solicit aid for needy communities.
