Welcome to Episode 5 – Bringing Cervical Cancer Screenings to Maison de Naissance!  

Today, we are talking about Maison de Naissance, a birthing home in Torbeck, Haiti.  In the midst of our hope, sometimes despair, and resourcefulness needed to get the capracare project off the ground, by fate, faith, or chance, we learned of another opportunity to bring cervical cancer screenings to another organization.  Jean and I are talking with Jim Grant, the Executive Director of the Global Birthing Home Foundation, the funding arm of Maison de Naissance. Jim, welcome!
