Meet Julia
“I’m so proud to have gained a trade and to be a self-sufficient woman. I don’t like handouts. A handout never could have brought me here.”
Julia Antoine was forcefully displaced into Haiti from the Dominican Republic because of the color of her skin. She had worked for 20 years as a launderer and beach-side artisan – work that provided a middle-class life for her family.Julia made her way to Fonds Bayard, a displacement camp near the border, where Deux Mains’ partner organization, REBUILD Globally, was holding job training for refugees.
Six years later, Julia is now one of Deux Mains’ most talented full-time craftswomen. She rents a home locally and lives with her husband, Fritz, and their five children, whom she was able to reunite with, thanks to her paycheck.
