The Stronger Together Program is how we care for Family.

There is no better shelter than the love of family. We believe in God's original design for and intent of family. We do recognize, due to brokenness in our personal lives and the world around us, that the fight for family is real and we want to do our part, as individuals and as an organization. In Haiti, that looks like prayer (first and in all things), second relationship (intentional, consistent, and true) to walk through crisis, struggle and brokenness of families when they are most vulnerable, and lastly to see families in crisis stand together & endure trials undivided.

Currently, there is a dire need for resources to support people through crisis, not to remain in crisis. These resources need to be in the form of educating and supplying parents with the means to provide and care for their children. Our goal is to transform every family to the other side and transition out of need for our resources. While we stand in the gap, we will remain inline with our Circle of Care focus and address whole children and whole families. Through education, food supply, nutritional supplements, social support, and spiritual and emotional guidance, families will have a new pathway to a brighter future that is empowered by a “stronger together” family unit. 

The Little Hands Daycare Program is how we care for our Classrooms.

Many children around the world become orphans not because their parents are deceased, but because their family does not have the means to provide for them. In Haiti, the complications surrounding poverty are often the root cause of many orphaned and abandoned children being placed in the care of IBESR and BPM, Haiti's Social Welfare and Child Protective Services offices. Haiti continues to make life for families challenging. Political challenges, heightened poverty due to inflation and limited access to food supplies, the lack of social support services and infrastructure, job insecurity, and now debilitating gang activity have further burdened the nation. Struggling families create vulnerable children. Vulnerable children are more likely to be orphaned, abandoned, abused, neglected and trafficked.

Hands & Feet Project established the Little Hands Daycare in an effort to advocate for family preservation in the communities in which we operate. Our mission is to create a safe space for infants and children to learn and be loved. We help awaken their spirit to wonder and help grow their cognitive, emotional, and physical development to its potential. While a child’s time at Little Hands Daycare is short, the timeframe is crucial to early childhood development.  We are grateful for the opportunity to be involved in this transformational season and look forward to seeing its impact in the years to follow as these students are better prepared, able to attend higher academic standard schools and change the trauma and poverty cycles in Haiti.

The Children's Village is where we care for the Children that have been placed in our care.

When children are abandoned, neglected, or deemed unsafe with their parents or relatives, placing them in the orphanage system is a preferable alternative to continued abuse, exploitation, or trafficking. Therefore, it is crucial to provide suitable alternatives and resources such as Hands & Feet Project’s Residential Care at our Children’s Villages and our entire Providing Families Project to stand in the gap for these vulnerable children. While we never celebrate severed relationships or broken families, we recognize the importance of creating a safe and nurturing environment for children in need. We strive to offer them support and guidance, with the hope that they can reach their God-given potential.

We ensure that each child who is under the guardianship of Hands & Feet Project receives high quality care, from the time that they are placed on our campus to the time that they are able to be reintegrated into family, placed in a community based care home or transition into independence and community interdependence. Traditional orphan care, while a cost-effective approach, often sees an individual as a mouth to feed. Residential-style care is a different approach to orphan care, and we believe it ensures the best care for individuals. Our holistic approach brings children into houses of smaller groups so that more individualized care can be given. Children under our care are encouraged to ask for their needs to be met through their individual caregivers in order to strengthen their relationship within their homes.
