“The organization was established to prevent child relinquishment in haitian families...to promote job opportunities and to offer job skills training for haitians... To offer childcare for children at risk so parents can work... To promote educational opportunities for children, empowering them with hope and future possibilities... To raise awareness of opportunities to serve the haitian poor through media.”

“The organization was established to prevent child relinquishment in haitian families...to promote job opportunities ... To offer childcare for children at risk so parents can work... And to offer job skills training...to promote educational opportunities for haitians living in poverty. We continue with these efforts but are now focused on building future leaders through our programs.”

“The newest accomplishment is the addition of middle school! - ap haiti school is certified by the haitian government through 9th grade. This school year (2024-2025), we added 7th grade & plan to continue adding a grade each year through 9th grade. We continue to operate the following programs: - the apparent project education program begins with childcare for infants & toddlers, continues with early education offered in preschool & elementary school, and includes typing & computer skills starting in 4th grade. Our job skills program includes basic english & computer skills for teens & adults. - apparent project childcare, preschool & early education school currently has about 110 children attending. Our childcare cares for infants & toddlers up to age 2. Our preschool includes 3 classes for children ages 2 through 4. The elementary level includes kindergarten through 6th grade in our 2024-2025 school year. - apparent project is certified by the haitian government to operate classes through ninth grade. This school year (2024-2025), we added 7th grade. Students at apparent project are taught french, haitian kreyol and english. The students are learning well and enjoying their time at school. Almost all apparent project students regularly pass the required tests to move forward to the next grade level. If not, they receive tutoring in the problem subject so they can pass all tests. Ap has established a good reputation, often with a waiting list to enroll. - apparent project institute adds another element to our educational system. We offer job & educational skills training! We've trained over 250 adults, teenagers & elementary students. - skills training for elementary students begins in 4th grade. The focus is on typing! But it also gives students experience in operating a computer. The plan is to add more english & computer application skills to their curriculum each year. - teens and adults start with typing, then learn basic english, computer application skills, and learn how the windows operating system works. These students first learn to type. Then they study & practice speaking basic english. They are trained in basic microsoft applications, studying excel, word, powerpoint and more! We offer this training to teens in the local area, to our ap staff & other adults in the area, often to haitian managers and other workers. This year we began summer classes for students who completed 8th grade. This training improves opportunities for further education and better employment for haitian workers. It has increased the abilities of ap staff in providing management reports and will help them with better employment opportunities throughout their lifetime. Two ap institute teachers completed the initial advanced software training. The plan is to have these teachers train new students. Our teachers completed training through a university of michigan & carnegie mellon university programs. A seasoned software programmer supervises this program using zoom. Due to increased gang activity, it is impossible to consistently conduct classes for students who need to travel through dangerous areas to our school. Our advanced training is on hold.”
