Making a Difference Together – Our Shared


              Mission and Responsibility






























            Since its founding in 1989, The Center for Haitian Studies, Health, and Human Services, Inc.
            (CHS) has been a place of hope and empowerment for thousands of immigrants, refugees, and
            underserved individuals in South Florida. With a deep passion for promoting well-being, the Center
            ensures its services are accessible and delivered with the cultural sensitivity and compassion the
            community deserves.

            CHS offers a broad range of health services, from primary care to mental health support, HIV/AIDS
            prevention, and chronic disease management. It goes beyond healthcare - CHS prepares
            individuals with the knowledge and tools to take control of their health and their future. Fueled by the
            belief healthcare is a fundamental human right, the Center partners with local providers and
            community stakeholders to ensure even the most marginalized receive the care they need.

            CHS’s mission doesn’t stop at healthcare delivery. The Center actively advocates for policy
            changes at local, state, and national levels, striving to dismantle systemic barriers that limit
            equitable access to services. Whether it’s through research, collaborations with academic
            institutions,  or  disaster response  efforts  in  South  Florida  and  Haiti,  CHS  is  at  the  forefront  of
            making a lasting impact.

            Above all, CHS is a model of trust and support for the community, offering a safety net and a
            foundation for long-term self-sufficiency and dignity. Driven by its unwavering commitment to
            justice, equity, and opportunity, CHS continues to uplift the Haitian community with a passionate
            and personal touch.
