Konbit Sante

Our Vision

Konbit Sante envisions a Haiti where the people of Cap-Haitien will have continuing and measurable improvements in health status.

Our Mission

Our mission is to support the development of a sustainable health system that meets the needs of the Cap-Haitien community with maximum local direction and support. We view our Haitian colleagues as full and capable partners, and that by putting our heads together (tet ansanm), we can make more progress than any of us working alone.

Konbit Sante works directly with four Haitian health facilities: two hospitals and two health clinics. Together, these institutions provide care to over 300,000 people in greater Cap-Haitien. We support them in various ways, including:

• Workforce & Health Services: Management, training, and leadership development programs for healthcare workers.
• Medicine, Supplies & Equipment: Procurement and distribution of essential medical supplies and pharmaceuticals.
• Health Facility Infrastructure: Improvements to physical facilities and equipment to enhance healthcare delivery.
• Research, Data & Evaluation: Monitoring health outcomes, implementing data-driven interventions, and evaluating program effectiveness.
• Crisis & Emergency Support: Providing emergency medical supplies, training, and coordination during health crises.
