A love for basketball and an appreciation for the opportunities it can provide represents a common bond for everyone that is part of the Hoops For Haiti family. But life is bigger than just basketball. The Beyond Hoops Program delivers on our commitment to go beyond just helping student-athletes dedicated to the sport and was designed to provide direct and impactful support to the people and communities of Haiti through targeted charitable activities. Our work under this program is varied and guided by our agile and adaptable approach to problem solving. Areas of focus where we have dedicated organizational resources are represented below:

Mental Health Support - We provide guidance and support for people seeking out mental health related care and counseling, educating them on the resources available to them, and helping them to navigate the healthcare system. We also organize and host mental health workshops for Haitian youth and adults exposed to various forms of traumatic stress.
