The AP’s Matt Lee asked “On CARE, really, who came up with this acronym? Did you ask the actual CARE – ?” Ned Price, the Department Spokesperson said “Matt, we have a lot of acronyms in this building. There are many stakeholders who have a keen interest in this and who have demonstrated a keen ability to help move forward our collective mission to bring out of Afghanistan those who wish to leave, those to whom we have a special commitment, and we look forward to continuing to work with them. And then four, overall outreach and engagement, and we understand just how important that is. Three is resettlement in the United States, and of course, there will be heavy coordination with DHS and with Governor Markell and his office at the White House. Two is the third-country transit and processing outside of the United States. One, as I said, is the relocation of individuals out of Afghanistan for individuals who so choose to depart. And so just to put a period on this, CARE, the coordinator’s office, really has four key functions. And so as the new CARE – we like our acronyms here, but the Coordinator for Afghan Relocation Efforts – she will focus not only on the very complex issues related to relocation and resettlement but also on outreach: outreach to our partners with whom we’re working very closely in the advocacy community, in the veterans community our partners, of course, in Congress all of you we consider our partners as well and to our international partners to help effectuate and streamline all of it. She’s been our ambassador to Kazakhstan, and she has been an assistant secretary here twice over, once to our Near Eastern Affairs Bureau and also to our Bureau of European Affairs. She was what was then known as deputy SRAP, Special Representative for Afghanistan and Pakistan. She is someone who in many ways is uniquely qualified to take on this role – her first assignment as a Foreign Service officer was in Kabul – and is a member of the Senior Foreign Service. Ambassador Jones is assuming oversight of the entire Afghan relocation effort, from our ongoing efforts to facilitate the departure of individuals from Afghanistan, to their onward relocation, going to the so-called lily pads in the Middle East and elsewhere, and possible future resettlement here in the United States. … So we are extraordinarily grateful and honored to welcome back to the Department someone I think many of you know well, and that’s Ambassador Elizabeth Jones. At the Daily Press Briefing of October 12, 2021, the State Department announced the appointment of Ambassador Elizabeth Jones as Coordinator for Afghan Relocation Efforts or CARE for short, as Foggy Bottom is fond of acronyms.
