Honduras: Street children center assistance disrupted

Honduras / 08.07.09

Due to the ongoing political crisis in Honduras and related clashes between security forces and protesters, activities at the Médecins Sans Frontières street children center in Tegucigalpa have been disrupted, as Médecins Sans Frontières staff had difficulties reaching the center.

The Médecins Sans Frontières team in Honduras is getting ready to provide support to local health structures should they be overwhelmed by an influx of wounded in the coming days.

Médecins Sans Frontières has been providing medical and psychological support to children and young adults living in the streets of Tegucigalpa since 2005.
