The Mizak Health Clinic was opened over a year ago by an organization called Haitian Artisans for Peace International. A group of "grassroot nurses" from Marcus, Iowa were the first team to start the clinic and it was a success. Since the clinic has opened, healthcare workers from the US have empowered the Mizak community through training Haitian healtcare workers. Now they have a hypertesion clinic and a program for malnurished children. Our dream is to help the Haitian's create a better Haiti with a sustainable clinic operated by the healthcare workers of Mizak. We are hoping to have a nursing school in the mountains someday.
