Please pray for the Haitan families and communities that have been affected by hurricanes Hanna and Ike. The CNP is monitoring the situation in Leogane, through our already existing network of village nutrition workers, and stands ready to offer assistance to our brothers and sisters as they recover from this diaster. |

The CNP is a non-denominational, faith-based organization. Our mission is to raise a healthy generation of Haitian children, who will in turn raise Haiti from poverty. |
The CNP works to achieve this mission, in partnership with our Haitian brothers and sisters by:
- Empowering mothers and other caregivers through community-based health and nutrition education using locally available resources and employing Haitian supervisors
- Providing direct health care, including therapeutic rehabilitation for severly malnourished children, mobile medical clinics, and community treatment of pheumonia and rheumatic fever
- Supporting health-related community development programs, such as increasing access to safe water to prevent diarrhea and other water borne illnesses
- Facilitating the participation of poor families in proven Haitian microcredit programs

| The CNP was founded by Dr. Mitch Mutter, a cardiologist from Chattanooga, Tennessee in 1998 after repeated medical mission trips to Haiti throughout the 1980's and 1990's. The CNP was incorporated as a 501c3 non profit organization in 2004. The CNP is also registered as a Private Voluntary Organization (PVO) with USAID. |
| The CNP works in partnership with Holy Cross Hospital, run by the Episcopal Diocese of Haiti, in Leogane, Haiti, 18 miles outside the capital, Port au Prince. Please click on the above links for more information about our work. The CNP is largely funded through individual contributions, which can be made by clicking on this Donation Link. |
