Poor mothers and children have a rough life here in Haiti. The "husband or man” they are living with demands that she have his baby. Women whose husbands have left them or abandoned them to go to the Dominican Republic will be raising children on their own. They could “never afford” to go to a...
Wilner, the head of the Agricultural Training Center (ATC), sent this to me last evening. The Agricultural Training Center workers and students are doing a great job!

This week, we have been warned that the gangs will try to take over the government buildings and possibly attack the airport. The gangs have been taking over everyone’s homes around Port-au-Prince and the government area. Plus, many other areas, even out where we are. They will go after the Prime Minister, as they are...
