Our work in Haiti
Tools for lifelong success
Bethany understands the challenges youth face when trying to access the education and resources needed to secure a career.
The Haiti youth resilience program, Jèn Yo Kapab (Youth Strong) is a 12-month program for youth ages 17 to 22, designed to empower youth, help them reach their potential and be self-sufficient.

Youth resilience
The program focuses on building the emotional, entrepreneurial, and financial skills needed to overcome generational poverty. With your help we can lower the number of youth stuck in generational poverty.
The work that we do
Life skills development & mentorship
Youth learn about time management, interpersonal relationships, conflict management, leadership, and more. They receive ongoing case management to help them identify goals, notice barriers, and obtain the resources to overcome them. Youth also meet with experienced entrepreneurs in group and one-on-one sessions for guidance and mentorship.
Vocational school placement & cash-based intervention
Participants of the Youth Strong program attend a vocational school based on their business interests. Participants also receive an allowance to purchase materials needed for school or to cover business start-up costs.
Financial literacy
Workshops focus on money management, budgeting, saving, and investing. The Youth Strong program aims to help these youth build the emotional, entrepreneurial, and financial skills needed to overcome generational poverty.
