Welcome to Healing Hands for Haiti

 
We are a secular, non-profit, non-governmental organization (NGO) dedicated to delivering quality, sustainable physical medicine and rehabilitation education, training  and care for adults and children with physical disabilities in Haiti. We believe the best way to serve the people of Haiti is to empower them to help themselves.

With the support of our donors, partners, volunteers and Haitian-led professional staff, we operate two outpatient facilities in Port-au-Prince: our Kay Kapab Klinik offers physical therapy, clinical services and training; and our partnership with Handicap International at Physical Rehabilitation Center fabricates and fits prosthetics and orthotics. Complete information available in our annual reports.
 

 

 

Rebuilding Healing Hands for Haiti

 

Installation of the skylight on the new rehabilitation clinic building was completed on January 25th. It looks incredible! The finishing work within the building is moving along at a rapid pace now as several rooms have received their first coat of paint.  The pharmacy room now has tiled counters and the interior doors are being built on site by hand.  Healing Hands welcomed visitors from USAID and Handicap International who toured the building and were delighted to see the extent of the facility so close to completion.

Our Redevelopment Partners 

 

Strong support from Handicap International continues at the Physical Rehabilitation Center (PRC) located near the National Palace area of downtown Port au Prince.  Originating from a 2009 small collaboration to assist 10 Haitian people with prosthetic limbs and quickly expanded after the January 2010 earthquake, this partnership has solidified into a long term commitment to help disabled, injured and vulnerable; while training current and future generations of caregivers.
