Against the disrupting backdrop of the COVID-19 pandemic, JRF faced a year that tested all assumptions about what is normal and what is not. That drove the foundation to adopt new ways of helping communities become more resilient, through homegrown solutions designed to engage its beneficiaries via distance learning, social innovation, and home-based entrepreneurship.
Since the enforcement of lockdown measures in Jordan, JRF has been working diligently to ensure that proper measures and protocols are in place to guarantee the safety of its employees and beneficiaries.
Developing our own online training platform enabled us to engage beneficiaries all across the Kingdom, from the comfort of their homes, offering child safety and community empowerment services and training; from emotional intelligence, basic life skills, workforce readiness, financial literacy, social innovation, family and child protection, and coping mechanisms.
Access to child and family safety counseling has been sustained through the foundation’s 110 Helpline; offering psycho-social support, case management and referral services 11 hours/day. JRF has also been actively involved with various partners and organizations in addressing online sexual abuse, cyber bullying and gender based violence through a series of online campaigns and tools targeting children, adolescents, youth and parents.
