Support operations generally cover two broad categories: humanitarian assistance and environmental assistance. Humanitarian assistance operations are people - oriented, focusing on the well-being of supported populations; they provide critical supplies to designated groups at the request of local, state, federal or international agencies.
In cooperation or independent of military forces, there are NGO's that involve in support operations, especially in humanitarian assistance. Some of these could be: ICRC - International Committee of Red Cross, Amnesty International, Doctors Without Borders, International Federation for Human Rights.
NGOs do not operate within the military or governmental hierarchy or the chain of command. Therefore, any relationship between the armed forces and an NGO is best characterized as a professional or circumstantial association. Generally, coordination between military forces and NGOs is facilitated through the UN, USAID, or DOS. The military force ordinarily orchestrates this interaction with other agencies and organizations through the activities of a civil-military operations center (CMOC).
