Thanks to the whole Dd team for making this a reality. This is great example that we set for the future and in the framework of Haiti reconstruction.

I support what you guys are doing but, as I watched the video, the very first thing I've notices that you all sat in side of the back of the truck while the women and children hung on to the back of the truck????
Maybe I'm ignorance but I'm in no doubt you all have made offered to the women the inside seating and they've refused.

They'll need thousands more people, and thousands more dollars. Rape is an epidemic there now; civilization has collapsed.

Hey Paul,

Thank you for the questions. Initial funding enabled us to purchase all the equipment for the center, train call center staff and get the lines set up. The 572 call center is now an integrated component of the comprehensive support that KOFAVIV provides to its members, and all women and girls who are victims of gender-based violence. They have dedicated staff to answer calls, direct callers to medical care, and provide accompaniment when and where possible. Since the call lines were launched over a month ago, they have fielded calls from police precincts, the general hospital and women who learned about 572 from KOFAVIV agents who work in the camps.

Following our most recent strategic planning session with KOFAVIV, they decided to expand outreach for the call center, so that they can reach more women and girls throughout Port-au-Prince. At the current volume of calls, KOFAVIV is able to sustain services regardless of whether more money is raised, from the support they have already secured. With the additional funding we're seeking, they will be able to widely promote the service
in the camps. Additionally, the funds will sustain our staff person in Haiti, KOFAVIV's call center staff and provide funds for transport and
accompaniment of victims through the next year. Sustainability of the
call center was really important to KOFAVIV, us and our donors, which is
why it is tied to KOFAVIV's committed work in the first place.

Let us know if you have more questions!
Emily

I'm a little confused - the system is live but has no funding? Is there a strategy for sustaining this into the future? How long will $150,000 last?
