Mission and programs · 2025

Mission

The Mission of the Organization is to assist with the cultural, educational, social, and economic development of the Haitian community in the United States and in Haiti; plan and implement programs and activities for the advancement of the diaspora and the motherland.

  • The Organization promoted access to resources, accurate information, and community support as immigrants faced intensified enforcement actions.In 2025, the Orgnanization promoted a statewide effort to advance immigrant inclusion across the state of Illinois by expanding access to public befenits, partnering with trusted community-based organizations, and delivered culturally and linguistically appropriate outreach. These collaborative efforts helped ensure that Haitian immigrants remained informed, connected, and supported while navigating a rapidly evolving policy environment. We also expanded community engagement through educational workshops, public forums, and stratigic collaborations with institutions.The Haitian Congress provided a comprehensive continuum of support, including social services, interpretation and document translation, legal assistance, and referral for food, clothing, and housing assistance, promoting stability,self-sufficiency, inclusion.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
