Hurricane Maria’s passage in September 2017 severely damaged or destroyed more than 90 percent of buildings and damaged more than 40 water systems in Dominica, according to the UN. Amid ongoing recovery activities, USAID/OFDA partner the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) continues to support critical shelter repairs and water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) activities, including in Dominica and throughout hurricane-affected islands in the Caribbean.
