Haiti has the highest rate of infant mortality in the western hemisphere; 48 per 1,000 live births.  1 in 39 babies won't survive their first month and 1 in 29 children will die before their first birthday. A 2012 study states that major causes of infant death are prematurity (34%) and infectious conditions (18%). HHA is passionate about tackling these challenges and believe our new Neonatal Care Unit will provide an excellent foundation to dramatically improve neonatal survival rates.
