Partners In Health @pih.org · 04/09/2026For families like Saintange’s, access to care means more than a doctor’s visit. It means the opportunity to regain stability, protect their health, and build a better future. 120
Partners In Health @pih.org · 04/09/2026With support from ZL, the FAES-BID Project, and partners, clinicians at Sainte-Thérèse Hospital in Hinche provided Saintange with a medical consultation. They diagnosed her with anemia, knee pain, gastritis, and cervicitis. 100
Partners In Health @pih.org · 04/09/2026During an outreach visit near her home, the program team selected Saintange’s family to participate. After she spent three years focusing entirely on her family’s needs, she finally received care herself. 100
Partners In Health @pih.org · 04/09/2026The program supports households facing a combination of illness, poverty, and geographic isolation. For many, these challenges have only grown amid Haiti’s ongoing crisis, making access to care more difficult and, at times, dangerous. 100
