Reinforcing Communities' Skills

In the absence of other economic opportunities, families in Haiti may feel obliged to send their children to work as domestic servants (restavks) in larger cities.

Fondasyon Limy Lavi (FLL) strengthens the capacity of community-based groups to meet economic challenges by assisting them to manage livestock and microcredit activities, advocate for children's rights, and protect the environment. At the IAF, we support community-led solutions to expand economic opportunity in Haiti.

FLL's activities strengthen communities through education and training and better economic options so that families can keep their children at home and reclaim those placed as servants.
