Caritas Moldova and CRS provided cash support to host families to assist them in maintaining their housing arrangements, cash rental support to refugee households to cover rent and utilities for a minimum period of 6 months or even longer in extremely vulnerable cases, and also provided cash support for minor repairs in order to increase the availability of accommodation units for refugees. Under this program, both Ukrainian refugees and vulnerable Moldovans also received cash support to compensate for increased costs and material needs (e.g. firewood, blankets, lighters, winter clothing) during the winter months. These four activities, together with the case management, were instrumental in improving the quality of life of the project participants.
