The problem of health care is very serious in Haiti, but it is worse in underdeveloped mountainous areas where bad roads make travel difficult. It takes hours to get to a hospital, and those who need urgent care very often die before they can be helped. Only those who have money can afford private care. The great majority of the people in the area do not have basic preventive care. The only clinic in the area closed four years ago. In July 2012, HACA organized a very successful ambulatory clinic in Haiti where we partnered with local and Haitian American doctors to provide eye, pediatric, and general care to several communities. Over 400 families attended. That program was repeated two more times. Our hope is to reopen the clinic and provide urgent and regular preventive care to the communities of Bellevue de la Montagne.
