HRF is committed to sustaining high-quality education and training of rehabilitation professionals in Haiti through financial, logistical/operational, and strategic support.

In response to the critical shortage of trained rehabilitation professionals, HRF established Faculté des Sciences de Réhabilitation de Léogâne (FSRL)—Haiti’s first academic program for occupational and physical therapy.
