Midwives For Haiti

Midwives For Haiti educates Haitian women and men in providing prenatal care and skilled birth assistance to their fellow Haitian sisters, who too frequently either die in childbirth or lose their newborn without such care. Each year, we host an 11-month course taught and precepted by four Haitian midwives, who are assisted by volunteer midwives from North America and Europe.
