The Syrian Emergency Task Force (SETF) is a United States-based, 501-C(3) organization established in March 2011 to support the Syrian people in their struggle for freedom and democracy, irrespective of ethnicity, region, or background. SETF advocates in solidarity with the Syrian people to inform and educate the American public and its representatives about their suffering.
The organization's primary focus is those still inside Syria suffering from the colossal humanitarian crisis. In 2016, SETF opened a school for orphans in the Northern Idlib Province of Syria and in August 2017 expanded the school to include a Women's Center by the name "Tomorrow's Dawn Women's Center". SETF seeks to promote the development of the Syrian civil society based on respect from human dignity and freedom.
In the United States, the focus of the Syrian Emergency Task Force is advocacy on behalf of Syrians to the American government and bringing awareness to the American people. Their aim is to protect the innocent civilians caught in the war and put pressure on the Syrian government whether that be through advocating for U.S. military support in the Syrian Civil War, congressional office visits, media awareness campaigns, and organizing briefings for key U.S. foreign policy decision-makers. The Syrian Emergency Task Force was instrumental in the drafting and passage of the Caesar Syria Civilian Protection Act.
