With the surge in gang violence, now taking control over approximately 100% of the region where we operate in Haiti, Deaf people living in isolation continue to be relying on Off-The-Grid Missions’ operations for food relief, medical support, emergency evacuations, communication access, healthcare, and much more. However, even when DeafDisabled Elders receive food resources, they do not have the strength to care for themselves in the most basic ways required to survive, which includes walking distances to collect heavy buckets of water, making a fire, and preparing food.
⛑️ So we have expanded our relief program to assign individuals from the community to prepare and deliver hot meals with the food relief we provide.
Note that while the living conditions are dire, we are limited in how we can help without further targeting Deaf people in this region with theft and extreme violence.
