El Peje is a rural community with significant basic needs and a large Haitian immigrant population, making the CarePoint’s role especially important. Because most families do not have the legal documentation required for children to continue into secondary school, many young people have little opportunity to keep learning beyond primary school. This creates a deep need for both educational support and Change Makers, giving children and youth a place to keep growing, learning, and being invested in. The greatest need now is a permanent building large enough to run all programs well and create the safe, welcoming, and joyful space these children need and deserve.
