Work is continuing with our partners in Haiti and our people from New York are in the Dominican Republic at this time. We are sending provisions and supplies to our Port au Prince distribution Center through the diocese of Haiti.
Concerning volunteering in to work in Haiti now:
Episcopal Relief & Development discourages all volunteer travel to Haiti for the foreseeable future.
The situation is very unstable and safety and security cannot be guaranteed.
The Episcopal Diocese of Haiti is fully occupied with ministering to its members and is not in a position to host volunteers at this time. '
At some point in the future, Episcopal Relief & Development may consider organizing volunteers to go to Haiti. We will publicize those opportunities when and if it becomes appropriate.
In the meantime, please collect names of those who may be interested and hold on to them so that when the time is right and a call goes out, you can be in touch with people.
