Programs
3 programs
Rural model community initiative: the movement to end child domestic servitude (restavk) made significant strides in protecting children's rights, mobilizing communities, and providing essential services. Bb supported 195 at-risk children, liberating eight from harmful situations and offering psychosocial and economic support. They also assisted six girls survivors of rape with comprehensive medical, legal, and psychological aid. Bb identified 57 children at risk of violence, improving family conditions through sensitization efforts. Furthermore, they empowered 124 children with educational resources. The establishment of 30 new child protection structures exceeded expectations, fostering collaboration among 218 survivors. Bb's education is a conversation program achieved a 97% graduation rate, promoting non-violent discipline methods. In education, 10 new rural schools were integrated into a training program, with 87% of children completing the academic year. The family graduation program achieved a 99% graduation rate, enrolling 160 new families and significantly improving participants' food security and community engagement, although challenges persist due to ongoing socio- political issues.
Urban model community initiative: despite significant gang violence in port-au-prince, the urban team effectively implemented essential programs on lagonav island, achieving progress in four neighborhoods focused on community organizing and training activists. They strengthened the capacity of child protection brigades and adult survivors of restavk network branches, promoting a collective leadership model that facilitates access to services for survivors. Economic stability was pursued through new village savings and loans associations in ansagale, which received seed funding and will soon offer record-keeping classes to help members manage finances. Psychosocial therapy for survivors includes new group sessions addressing emotional management and self-worth. The survivors' network in ansagale formed a governing council to enhance collective action and engaged with organizations like doctors without borders. Celebrating a decade since the adoption of haiti's anti-human trafficking law, workshops were conducted to promote awareness and urge enforcement, fostering community involvement and collaboration among local authorities and organizations.
