OPERATING PRINCIPLES
​
-
With God, all things are possible.
-
Within the objective statements, targets such as “clean,” “safe,” “necessary,” and “successfully” are relative to Haitian social and cultural norms. Our mission is to enable the achievement of full human potential within existing norms, and encourage those we lift up to work towards the alignment of those norms to Christian principles.
-
Our mission is executed primarily through the Cap Haitien District of the Methodist Church of Haiti, and secondarily through direct outreach to community partners.
-
Frequent, active, and informed visits to by NCHM Board members and other interested parties to the villages, schools, and churches we support are the primary means for ensuring local accountability for proper use of resources provided and for measuring progress towards objectives.
