The Fate of Haiti's Children
What will happen to the orphaned, homeless, sick and at-risk children in Haiti, who make up more than half of the country's population? Efforts are underway by Catholic Legal Services in South Florida to bring many here, for adoption, foster care or other placement. This was done for Cuban children in Operation Pedro Pan in the 1960s.
What's needed: Passports, Emergency visas, the granting of refugee status, faster paperwork processing.
We really need to get the injured children to places with adequate surgical and medical facilities.
