Ft. Liberte, Haiti humanitarian project
by Free Press Staff
January 8, 2004

The Glen Echo Presbyterian Church (on Calumet & Glen Echo) is planning its second medical mission to Ft. Liberte in early February. Last year they worked with the First Presbyterian Church of Charleston W. VA to treat 2500 people (approximately 1/4 of the population of Ft. Liberte) over a period of six days.

This year they are planning to increase the length of the mission to two weeks with Glen Echo responsible for the second week. Because of the expanded scope of the mission they need to recruit additional physicians and nurse practitioners. They also need other health care providers (nurses, pharmacists, dental assistants) as well as non-medical types for medication distribution, crowd control, and other duties.

For additional information about the mission to Ft. Liberte, Haiti, contact Jen Lucas at lucas.72@osu.edu.
