Our Mission: We partner to end extreme poverty and to promote resilient, democratic societies while advancing security and prosperity.

Ukraine plays a critical role in United States Government efforts to help former Soviet countries establish democratic institutions and globally-integrated free market economies.  To achieve its goal of creating a democratic, secure, and prosperous Ukraine, USAID partners with Ukrainians on participatory, transparent and accountable governance processes, broad-based resilient economic development, and improved access to health services.  USAID also prioritizes efforts to counter trafficking in persons and support the Chornobyl Shelter Fund as part of a multi-donor international effort.
