Perinatal Health in Haiti

Perinatal health is profound in changing a child’s life for good or for bad. That is why LiveBeyond has chosen perinatal health to be one of our main focuses. We know that implementing key elements like proper healthcare and nutrition can begin to change a child’s life before they are even born.

Together, we can change the world one life at a time!

 According to the World Health Organization (WHO), in 2018 there were 5.3 million deaths in children under the age of five. Half of those deaths occurred in the first month of a child’s life. It is also mentioned that one of the leading causes of death in children under five is preterm birth complications. While these statistics are devastating to read, it makes it abundantly clear how important perinatal health is for the trajectory of a child’s life. 

The LiveBeyond maternal health program strives to enhance perinatal health. That is why we seek to enroll as many pregnant women in the Thomazeau community as possible. This program is sustaining and saving lives! Exciting things are happening here in Thomazeau, Haiti. We invite you to be a part of this exciting and lifesaving work.
