IMC’s Emergency Response Team is on the ground, conducting
rapid health assessments to determine how best to respond
to the needs of people both in the Kibera slums and
in the Rift Valley, who have had to flee their homes and
have
been
left without income and food. IMC is operating mobile
clinics in Kibera, seeing up to 300 patients a day, security
