Directory of Non-Governmental Organizations Involved in Haiti's Post-Disaster Recovery

Directory of Non-Governmental Organizations Involved in Haiti's Post-Disaster Recovery

Summary: Directory compiled on August 4, 2015 by Alka Sapat (Florida Atlantic University) and Ann-Margaret Esnard (Georgia State University) listing, by US region, the name, headquarters and website of NGOs, many run by the Haitian diaspora, involved in Haiti's post-disaster recovery.
Key Findings
Full Description

The directory was compiled as part of a larger research study on Haitian diaspora and nongovernmental organization networks and their role in disaster resilience and recovery in Haiti. The study focused on South Florida, New York, Boston and the Atlanta area, where approximately 80% of the Haitian-American diaspora reside, and also included international NGOs based in Washington, D.C. and elsewhere in the US.

The compilers state that the list is partial, a snapshot in time that may be incomplete or out of date, and that only basic contact information is given: the organization's name, the location of its headquarters and its website. Entries are grouped by region: Boston and surrounding region, D.C. and surrounding region, Georgia, New York, South Florida and other areas of the United States, with an index. The stated purpose is to make international aid groups and government agencies aware of NGOs, including diaspora organizations, and to help build mechanisms for collaboration, resource allocation and responses to future disasters. The work was supported by the National Science Foundation under grant CMMI #1162438.
