Mission Statement: (See Web Site For Updated Information)
Emergency - USA is meant to be the local chapter in the USA of Emergency - Life support for Civilian War Victims, the international non profit NGO active since 1994 with hospitals surgical and rehabilitation centers in areas of the world most ravaged by war. The idea of Emergency - USA was born in 2002 when surgeon Dr. Gino Strada, co-founder of Emergency, was invited in the US for a cycle of conferences in several US Universities . It was born with the purpose of making Emergency a future active presence within american civil society, to actively support the international humanitarian activities that Emergency pursues in the world in favor of civilian victims of war and of landmines, and of contributing to spread through practical humanitarian projects a culture of peace and solidarity.

Since it was founded in 1994, Emergency has expanded its activities considerably both in Italy and abroad. This has been made possible thanks to the help of volunteers who have dedicated us their time, and to private individuals, companies and organizations who have contributed to our projects.

If you want to help establish a local group of volunteers, expand and consolidate Emergency-USA , help us to provide medical and surgical support to civilian war victims, and spread a culture of peace and solidarity you can contact: Los Angeles : Marco Chiovato Rambaldo Pittsburgh: Alberto Colombi
Emergency?s humanitarian projects are normally permanent: a project involves construction and operation of hospitals and expansion of activities on the basis of priorities in the country. But in some cases Emergency has provided short-term emergency assistance in particularly dramatic conditions or situations of need, and it may provide assistance for other hospitals by providing specialised personnel, drugs or instruments.
