Support for Persons with Disabilities and Older Persons

Attention! All services and assistance of UNHCR and its partners are free of charge!

People with disabilities and older persons may face barriers in accessing services and assistance on the same basis as others. UNHCR works to ensure that all people forced to flee regardless of their age, gender or other characteristics can access our support.

Through its partners, UNHCR provides certain specialized services, including support through a social worker, psychosocial support, and counselling.
