Consistent with the goals of the U.S. Strategy for Central America, and in broad alignment with the Northern Triangle Countries’ Alliance for Prosperity Plan, USAID programs in El Salvador expand broad-based economic growth to support a more secure and prosperous El Salvador where citizens can envision a future in their own country. Security activities help to strengthen the justice system and government accountability, reduce crime and violence, and improve education for secondary students and out-of-school youth. Economic assistance helps to create jobs, promote a better business environment, and expand opportunities through increased trade. USAID programming addresses the key drivers of migration to the United States and actively engages civil society, community organizations, and the private sector to sustain program efforts.
