2019 Syria Regional Appeal - Jordan - Cash Assistance for Essential Needs

The purpose of the regular unconditional cash assistance component is to cover basic needs, such as food, NFIs and shelter, and to facilitate access to services, including transportation, electricity and water supply. All extremely vulnerable PRS, as well as PRS experiencing a protection concern, will receive a social transfer of US$ 40/person/month, whilst other vulnerable PRS will receive US$ 9.58/person/month. The second component of the programme will provide winterization support for heating fuel, warm clothes, mounting electricity usage and other costs related to the winter season. During the last quarter of 2019 it is expected that a total of 4,625 families will require winterization assistance corresponding to 100 per cent of PRS families in Jordan.
