Armed conflict and natural disasters leave millions of people around the globe in urgent need of humanitarian assistance every year. Red Cross tracing services and Red Cross Messages help families locate each other, send communication, and learn each other’s fate. Tracing loved ones can take a long time; nevertheless, families need closure. As part of our tracing services,the American Red Cross established the Holocaust and War Victims Tracing Center, a national clearing house for United States residents seeking the fates of loved ones missing since World War II and its aftermath. If you are one of these survivors, the American Red Cross can help. All of our tracing services are confidential and free of charge.
To begin your search, call our International Social Services office at 713-313-1635.
