The Haitian Scientific Society (HSS) is a non-profit organization founded in 1996 and incorporated in
2001. The HSS is comprised of Haitian professionals with graduate and undergraduate degrees in
various fields of Engineering, Mathematics, Science and Education.
Our mission is to provide a forum where underrepresented minorities can enrich their minds, develop
their basic artistic, scientific and technological skills and to encourage and promote a more active
participation in community activities.
Our philosophy is based on the understanding that while serving the needs of our immediate
community, we can effectively reach out to other groups of people which share both our interests and
limitations. The synergy between our immediate interests and our desire to fulfill a higher purpose
stands at the core of our ideals and is one of the main reasons why we expect to thrive in this ever
changing and evolving world.
In order to fulfill our mission, the HSS has been working on several fronts to:
- Facilitate the dissemination of information pertaining to the basic arts and sciences via seminars at
local colleges and universities in the Boston area.
- Create a forum for minority high school students to have ready access to weekly tutoring sessions
via outreach programs.
- Provide direct means to engage the community via monthly radio programs.
We seek to leverage our current services to develop new services to the community and to provide
increasingly better opportunities for our membership. If you would like to become involved, please do
not hesitate to contact us.
