Rehabilitation care critical for Haiti earthquake survivors

Specialized rehabilitation for earthquake-related injuries and long-term physical therapy are critical to ensure full recovery and prevent future complications. Many of Humanity & Inclusion's disaster response efforts in Haiti are supported by USAID. Below are photos of some of the patients receiving care from Humanity & Inclusion and its partners.
