Overview
Education in Haiti is highly valued, and yet the literacy rate in Haiti is only 60%. Many adults would love to have the opportunity for learning, both the basics and learning about society and life.
We will begin with basic literacy, offered to small groups of adult women with little or no reading ability. We will continue with lessons on Haitian history, basic health care precautions, and resources for further learning and vocational training.
 
 
Details
 
Our goal is not to form a school, but to create an atmosphere of love around learning. All those who have something to teach, and all those who have a little extra in the way of supplies, can contribute what they wish.
This project will be coordinated by Myriam Dejean and Jean Marcel, both long-time Visionary Society associates.
