    An Afghan child traces his hand during an arts and crafts activity on Fort Pickett, Virginia, Oct. 24, 2021.
    The activity was part of an arts and crafts event intended to provide a fun and educational environment
    for Afghan children at Fort Pickett. Volunteers from the Afghan Association of Central Virginia, Health
    Point Foundation, FAMIL, Husayn for Humanity, and Helpers To Good have been sending volunteers
    weekly to Fort Pickett for the past month. The Department of Defense, through U.S. Northern
    Command, and in support of the Department of Homeland Security, is providing transportation,
    temporary housing, medical screening, and general support for at least 50,000 Afghan evacuees at
    suitable facilities, in permanent or temporary structures, as quickly as possible. This initiative provides
    Afghan personnel essential support at secure locations outside Afghanistan. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by
