Every Restavek girl deserves an education.
Restavek children have seldom access to education due to grade-age policies and unaffordable tuition. On rare occasions where they are able to attend classes, they often struggle to succeed due to exhaustion, lack of nutrition, lack of appropriate pedagogy, lack of school supplies and didactic materials and lack of emotional support. All Restavek children deserve a place to feel secure, get a quality education, and socialize, study and sleep at night. Our accelerated education program will allow Restavek girls to realize their full potential.
Haiti Now is investing in an accelerated education program that will allow Restavek girls to take a big step forward in their learning and their lives. Each girl will benefit from a tailored curriculum that emphasizes critical thinking, creativity, collaboration, and communication. The program will be housed within the Residential School, our nurturing environment and supportive community. Our professionally trained teachers and staff seek not only to provide a great education, but to instill a greater sense of self-confidence and independence through leadership programs and community building workshops.
