Currently action is concentrated in two areas of Haiti: Port-au-Prince (PAP) and Les Cayes.
In PAP Cesvi supports The House of Smiles opened in 2010 at Wharf Jérémie, an extremely impoverished and densely populated neighbourhood in the area of Cité Soleil (PAP).The House of Smiles offers recreational activities and psychological counseling to children and adolescents The House of Smiles is open for additional lessons and after-school recreational activities.

In Aquin (Les Cayes), in the south of the country, Cesvi helps farmers to improve their productivity with environmentally-friendly practices (farm planning). 326 families received technical support and assistance with the use of seeds and animal husbandry. Farmers have also participated in training sessions on techniques for soil conservation.
