Empowering, Strengthening and
Uplifting South Florida's Haitian Community

Sant La is a resource in the following areas:

Citizenship Assistance

Legal Permanent Residents (LPRs) who qualify to apply for US citizenship receive assistance in preparing naturalization application and interview. The curriculum and techniques used to prepare students for the 1-on-1 interview process provides an understanding of the American government and culture, as well as promote engaged US citizens.

Capacity Building

Sant La assists other community organizations with their capacity building needs. We specialize in survival Creole, cultural competence and sensitivity.

College Scholarships

Sant La has created the Dr. Jean-Price Mars scholarship fund to assist college-ready individuals who have achieved academically and need financial assistance to attend college. This scholarship program was created after the January 12, 2010 earthquake in Haiti; it targets academically talented students who are not eligible for loans and grants.

Civic Engagement

Sant La hosts forums designed to promote community involvement; we encourage community members to identify their needs, articulate the appropriate solutions to those needs and participate in the decision-making process that affects their daily lives.

Community Partnerships

Sant La has created a number of collaborative partnerships to address the specific needs of the Haitian community. The active partnerships include the Together for Children Northeast Corridor Coalition, the Neighborhood Advisory Group (NAG) and the Haitian Philanthropy Coalition to help address the specific needs of the Haitian community.

Community Outreach and Education

Sant La's Creole-language educational television talk-show, Teleskopi, has become a primary means of informing and engaging community residents about important initiatives and topical issues. Due to a deeply rooted culture of radio and television in the Haitian community, Sant La utilizes both tools to reach our target audience.
