Our Mission
Haiti Rehabilitation Foundation (HRF) is a non-profit organization that was founded to educate Haitians who want to become Occupational or Physical Therapists. HRF is the primary support for the first and only school in Haiti with four-year degree programs in both OT and PT. With over 1 million disabled Haitians, the need for therapy services is enormous.
The program takes place at one of two Léogâne campuses of the Episcopal University of Haiti. The programs are offered through the Department of Rehabilitation which in French is called FSRL-UNEPH: Faculté des Sciences de Réhabilitation de Léogâne - Université Épiscopale d'Haiti).
To improve and strengthen persons with a disability, to show them that all is NOT finished with their life, that they could, as we say in Haiti, 'Move the mountain,' then they can have faith and believe this will happen.
