Challenges Facing CONASPEH

• Meeting the basic needs of the people
• Cleanup and rebuilding of hundreds of churches,
  schools, and other projects
• The displacement of thousands of people including
  CONASPEH leaders and pastors
• Burying and honoring those who have died
• Providing stability and hope during a time of
  chaos and despair

Moving Forward
CONASPEH is not a building. It is a philosophy
and a group of people committed to this
philosophy. Francois Villier

CONASPEHS Plan

• Phase 1 Emergency Response
• Phase 2 Recovery
• Phase 3 Reconstruction

Emergency Response

• Meet the basic needs of CONASPEH communities by
  providing food, water, clothing, beds, shelter,
  and medicine
• Provide micro-loans so that vendors, farmers, and
  small business owners can restart their
  businesses lost during the earthquake
• Provide counseling for individuals, especially
  for pastors and community leaders affected by the
  trauma of the earthquake

25
Recovery

• Setting up a mobile office to serve as CONASPEH
  headquarters
• Restart schools
• Provide educational seminars for pastors and
  community leaders
• Continue with micro-loans

26
Reconstruction

• Rebuild CONASPEH headquarters, classic school,
  nursing school, and seminary in Port-au-Prince
• Rebuild other CONASPEH churches and projects that
  were damaged or destroyed
• Begin a project to purchase livestock for farmers
  along with continued micro-loans
