Hunger and housing
Food insecurity continues. There is a shortage of local food supply due to flooding and crop loss and intermittent transportation over the road. Shipping was a major way for goods and vendors to get in and out of the Grand’Anse, but this ended in 2016 after hurricane Matthew. In addition, more people have relocated to this rural area as it is relatively safe. Many families (average of 6 people in each home) are living in houses damaged by earthquakes in 2021 and 2023. GAHDA has provided cement or tin and nails for repair and rebuilding to 55 families with support from generous donors.
