IRC Healing Classrooms Retention Support Programming Improves Syrian Refugee Children’s Learning In Lebanon

Impact Report
Written By Southpoint Collective

During school year 2016-2017, the International Rescue Committee (IRC) delivered Learning in a Healing Classroom after-school programming to support Syrian refugee children’s learning outcomes and retention in Lebanese public schools. We found that access to Healing Classrooms programming significantly improved students’ reading and math skills, as well as reduced the likelihood of interpreting interactions with peers as hostile in intent, after the first four months of program implementation.
