About the communities we work in
We work in the developing and developed world communities sharing reproductive health education in schools, churches, community centers, medical clinics and homes. We are primarily in Haiti, the USA, Kenya, Colombia and Bangladesh.
The LETS team in Port Salut, Haiti consists of 15 Haitian educators, manufacturers, and farmers. Our team teaches reproductive health and human development in Port Salut and the surrounding areas. We are discovering that 55% of Haitian men, women, and youth did not know how pregnancy occurred before attending a LETS course. Together, we are reducing rates of child poverty, trafficking, and abuse in these communities.
In collaboration with local Colombian NGOs, our team offers training and support for school teachers to instruct youth and families with the LETS Reproductive Health & Wellbeing curriculum in the greater Cartagena area. As part of this initiative our program materials are now available in Spanish, greatly expanding the reach of this essential education.
LETS Bangladesh has teamed up with the youth volunteers of the Youth Alliance for Sustainable International Development (YASID) to bring reproductive health education to Cox's Bazar and Chittagong. As these topics are viewed as too sensitive to be discussed in the public educational system or even within many families in Bangladesh, YASID instructors are enthusiastic about sharing this critical knowledge with their communities.
We track the longer term impact of our education on attitudes to family planning and health and menstrual cycle tracking activity for the purpose of preventing human trafficking, poverty and abuse. The training promotes communication and respect in relationships and is inclusive of all genders.
We provide proven methods to reduce unplanned pregnancies, one of the sources of trafficking, poverty and abuse.
We manufacture and educate with and about the LETS Lunar Essential Tracker System (LETS) Bracelet and natural family planning.
