The U.S. Ambassador to Liberia is the personal representative of the President, and oversees the Embassy and all federal departments and agencies represented within it.
Representatives from the State Department and other U.S. government departments and agencies manage portfolios concerning economic and commercial affairs, consular and immigration issues, public affairs, political and military relations, and development.
At Embassy Monrovia, our mission is to help Liberians succeed. We support this mission by working with our Liberian partners to initiate and pursue innovative, sustainable efforts that:
- Promote peace, security and the resolution of regional conflicts;
- Encourage equitable economic growth;
- Improve governance and rule of law;
- Expand equitable access to quality educational opportunities;
- Improve health of women and children; and
- Advance the prosperity and safety of Americans at home and abroad.
USAID leads the U.S. Government’s response to the West Africa Ebola outbreak. Our priority is combating and containing the virus at its source. A coordinated global response and relief effort made it possible to get to zero new infections. But our work is just beginning. We must strengthen access to primary health care so that children can get their regular vaccines and expecting moms can get the care they need to have healthy babies. We must help re-open schools so thousands of boys and girls can return to their classrooms. We must ensure that farmers can get their crops in the field and to market. We must act now to help West Africans rebuild from the devastation of Ebola and to ensure it can’t happen again.
