Haiti Health Initiative (HHI) is a nonprofit organization focused on serving the public health needs of the rural Haitian people. HHI’s goal is to first uncover the root causes that contribute to reduced health in Haiti. HHI will then use that knowledge to work alongside the Haitian community and implement sustainable water treatment projects, improve nutritional opportunities through agricultural expansion and train local medical and dental providers to provide sustainable care for those in their communities. HHI’s philosophy in working with the Haitians is best summarized by this saying: “Bring all the good that you have and let us add to it.” -Gordon B. Hinckley. HHI’s aim is to support current healthy living practices and promote sustainable and culturally appropriate change by working side by side with local and international partners.
