300,000 Haitian women and girls are displaced without basic safety and health services, including Mariline , a mother of two who is six months pregnant.
“We had to escape. The gangs were indiscriminately killing women and men alike,” she told UNFPA. “Sometimes I can’t sleep. I’m so stressed about our situation.”

Over 84,000 pregnant women like Mariline lack secure access to health services amidst the rise in violence in Haiti. The stress that comes with displacement can increase the risk of pregnancy complications.
In response to this crisis, UNFPA sent mobile clinics to provide sexual and reproductive health services to displaced people in Haiti’s capital.
“I needed to go to the hospital, but I couldn’t afford the medicine. Thankfully, I got it for free at the mobile clinic,” said Mariline. “ This camp was the only place where my family could find refuge. ”
UNFPA is prioritizing the continuation of these lifesaving services for pregnant women in Haiti, since maternal mortality is nearly twice as high in humanitarian crises. But in order to keep reaching pregnant women like Mariline, your support today is urgently needed.
Will you make a gift to deliver lifesaving care to women and girls in Haiti and around the world left most vulnerable during times of crisis? The world must not abandon the women and girls of Haiti. [[link removed]]

“This support is crucial for our health,” Mariline reiterated.
Thank you for powering this lifesaving work.
