Mission
Building godly leaders of integrity so Haitians are empowered to restore THEIR nation for God's glory.
Program accomplishments
- HTC is the only Haitian-led 18-month Christian residential discipleship and development program for troubled young Haitian men and women (ages 16-24). Through the power of God's word and the Holy Spirit, addictions and harmful sexual and violent behaviors are broken, incarcerated youth are ministered to, and relationships with God, others, and themselves are restored. Students are taught life skills, equipped to live with dignity, provided scholarship opportunities for a University Degree or Vocational Certification, then mobilized to serve their nation, and sustained and mentored through the local church.HTC partners closely with Rendez-Vous Christ Church (RVC). RVC was started in 2016 to serve HTC graduates who were rejected by the local church because of their past. Today, they serve as church leaders, Sunday school teachers, welcomers, and small group leaders. Before the political instability, RVC served over 5,000 Haitians each week through services at four campuses. Through social media and broadcasts across Haiti, RVC's messages reach an additional 1,500,000 people.Launched in September 2025, the Haiti Teen Challenge Prison Program provides spiritual, legal, psychological, and psychosocial support to individuals within Haiti's prison system. Through a holistic approach, the program seeks to address emotional, relational, and spiritual needs while helping participants rediscover hope and purpose. Through mentorship, discipleship, rehabilitation services, and the support of dedicated partners, men and women are finding renewed dignity and opportunities for lasting transformation. Early outcomes have already includedbaptisms, family reunification efforts, and steps toward successful reintegration.In 2025, we granted over $500,000 to DJH Fondation to purchase the Women's Center. This purchase will secure the women's program well into the future.TRANSFORM: Through the power of the Holy SpiritDuring their time at HTC, students break the cycle of addiction and dependencies, all while reading and studying the word of God.
