HAITI HAS THE HIGHEST MATERNAL AND INFANT MORTALITY RATIOS IN THE WESTERN HEMISPHERE.
Haiti has a severe shortage of skilled health providers and only enough to provide 10% of Haiti’s population with full reproductive health care (UNFPA 2014). Nearly all maternal and infant deaths in Haiti are preventable with access to a skilled birth attendant. Our mission is to increase access to skilled maternity care.
