Haiti: Group Home for Children suffering with Aids




This simple prototype layout for a Group Home for Children Living with Aids originally developed for South Africa could easily be adapted to house children suffering from the trauma of the Earthquake and the need for safe housing monitored by caregivers living within a home setting. While the use of stress skin structures is well established, modular systems with alternate site specific and safe materials are not prevalent. These sketches are uploaded to promote discussion of self help models which meet the skill levels of local inhabitants. Small communities could integrate up to 8 of these homes without creating stress on local government.
