ESPWA Child Development Center: In June 2020, Overture assumed the financial sponsorship of ESPWA in Southern Haiti, providing vital educational programs for children and support for their families with the ultimate goal of keeping the family unit together.

Community & Economic Development Programs: Overture's Community & Economic Development programs work directly with community members in assessing their own problems, identifying their own resources and developing their own solutions. Programs provide job opportunities, hands-on training, and grow the local economy.
