In the wake of the Jan. 12, 2010 earthquake, Haitians with disabilities are particularly vulnerable. CWS is expanding its work with disabled people in Port-au-Prince together with our partner Service Chretien d’Haiti. Some 2,500 people are being assisted in this effort. Church World Service's Don Tatlock explains how CWS is working with the Haitian government to distribute CWS hygiene kits, etc.
