Program areas at Family Health Ministries

Healthcare programs are Family Health Ministries' primary focus. Fhm provides a variety of programs including women's and children's healthcare. We are best known for our cervical cancer prevention and research programs.camelle voltaire womens' Health center - the cvwhc offers prenatal, postpartum, and ob/gyn services. This clinic is entirely haitian run and employs a licensed ob/gyn. The clinic is in the leogane commune located in the rural community of tom gato just off the road to jacmel.women's healthcare - Family Health Ministries work in women's Health is based on the priorities of the communities we serve and focuses on cervical cancer prevention and safe motherhood programs.
Family Health Ministries is committed to improving the opportunity for education in haiti through the following programs:saint antoine school in fondwa - the saint antoine school serves 700 students grades pre-k through 13 in the rural mountain community of fondwa. Fhm began its student sponsorship program in 2000 to support casinoluck.ca students, teachers' salaries, and general infrastructure. Through support from sponsors, fhm is able to provide $4,000.00/ month to the education of these special young people.fatima house orphange - since 2000, Family Health Ministries has provided financial and spiritual support for fatima house orphanage. Under the direction of the sisters of fondwa, the orphanage is home to over 60 children ranging from infants to young adults. Family Health Ministries provides financial support to the sisters to help meet the needs of these children. Many of the children at the orphanage are not orphans in the traditional sense, but instead their parents have turned them over to the sisters' care because their families are unable to provide appropriate food and shelter. All school-age children attend the adjacent saint antoine school. Family Health Ministries works to pair these students with sponsors in the usa through our student sponsorship program.the leogane nursing school - since 2008, Family Health Ministries began sponsoring students annually at the leogane nursing school, the facult des sciences infirmires de l'universit episcopale d'hati (faculty of nursing science of the episcopal university of haiti or fsil). This unique four year school is the only bsn program in the country. Overseen by dean hilda alcindor, young men and women are becoming well trained nurses with impressive critical thinking skills. Family Health Ministries has been blessed to hire nurses from this program to run our many women's Health initiatives.university student programs - Family Health Ministries partners with colleges and universities to provide research opportunities for undergraduates, graduate, and professional students. Students typically work on an fhm research project collecting data, data analysis, and eventual publication in some form. The data collected is used to evaluate existing fhm programs, assess community need, and implement new programs.
Leogane guest house - provides support for patients and families of the blanchard Health clinic and camelle voltaire womens' Health center as well as housing for missions workers. Beginning in 2022 fhm started a community garden on the large parcel of land that the guesthouse is located on. The garden uses approximately a third of the land to grow vegetables and a third of the land to grow trees. The garden has been used for outreach to the leogane community in a variety of ways. The community garden provides jobs for local haitians. Workers are hired to plant the crops and harvest the vegetables. So far this year, we have planted tomato, hot pepper, and eggplant, our bumper crops. In addition, we have planted cucumber, cabbage, watermelon, sweet pepper, carrot, and a variety of herbs. We have also planted plantain, mango, and avocado trees which will produce fruit next year. Surplus produce goes to fhm staff and their families. Any funds collected from the sale of the vegetables go back into buying more seed and paying the workers.
Spiritual support - churches are at the foundation of the haitian society. Where food, shelter and basic life necessities are critically scarce and day to day life is incredibly difficult, the church represents the center of hope, love, rest, and resources. Family Health Ministries provides spiritual supports initiatives in haiti through vacation bible school (vbs), bible distribution, pastor salary support, pastor discretionary fund & fhm faith advisory council programs.
Research - Family Health Ministries' unique strategy in haiti is to turn local community priorities into improved national Health care programs through data collection and best practice development. It is our goal to take what we have learned and apply that knowledge to improve healthcare throughout haiti. We have a vision that one day, much of what we learn in haiti can be utilized in other lowresource countries. To achieve this goal, we are conducting research in program areas such as cervical cancer research, Family Health, safe motherhood & institutional review boards (irbs).
