Crisis in Haiti Resource Guide

With the developing situation in Haiti, teachers may find themselves fielding the same questions that students ask when international conflicts, war, or humanitarian crises make the news: Why is this happening? And to what extent is the U.S. involved? How does this affect people I may know and care about? This guide is meant to help teachers better understand the current issues and events surrounding the tensions developing in Haiti as well as the involvement of The Caribbean Community (CARICOM), the United States, and others in Haitian affairs. The resources in this guide not only provide context and understanding of the invasion currently unfolding, but also of the broader conflict informing and shaping the events that have transpired. With some planning, these resources serve as useful documents for instruction. For more information or additional support see Current Events and Civics Education. While the resources in the guide are current as of the date published, new information may develop rapidly. Resources will be updated periodically as events continue, where applicable.
