Cambodia Family Development Services was established in January 1993 as the indigenous successor of the UNHCR-funded Reintegration Advisory Program, which was implemented in Cambodia by Holt International Children`s Services from July 1992 through December 1993. Following Holt`s withdrawal from Cambodia in December of 1993, CFDS continued as an independent and full-fledged local NGO. CFDS has expanded its activities to include not only a broad-based social services program focused on family development, but community development programs, which under a new initiative will include community-based resource management and environmental concerns. CFDS continues to support rehabilitation and development efforts in five provinces and provinces around the Tonle Sap Lake.
