‘They chose to stay’: Haitians ‘committed’ to seeing their country change

Mission of Hope founder and president Brad Johnson says many Haitians have chosen to stay and are committed to seeing their country change amid the gang violence in the region. For months, Haiti has been engulfed in a relentless storm of political chaos and economic ruin, with gang warfare spiralling out of control. “The team has adapted incredibly well given the circumstances, and that's we believe that's why we can continue to work there,” Mr Johnson told Sky New Australia. “Because we have 300 full-time Haitian staff that they feel like they own the vision, and they want to see their country changed.”
