Management Sciences for Health's Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, Paul Auxila, reflects on MSH's work improving health in Haiti. Auxila has worked with MSH since 1982.

The Supply Chain Management System [21] (SCMS), established in 2005 under the US President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief [22] (PEPFAR) administered by the US Agency for International Development [23] (USAID), supplies lifesaving medicines to HIV & AIDS programs around the world and is led by the Partnership for Supply Chain Management [24] (PFSCM), a nonprofit organization established by Management Sciences for Health [25] (MSH) and John Snow, Inc [26]. SCMS first established a presence in Haiti in 2007. MSH manages SCMS operations in Haiti.

Management Sciences for Health (MSH) sponsored a Congressional Staff Study Tour [29] in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, in December 2014 to help staffers get a first-hand account of health progress in Haiti. The overarching focus of the trip was how US government funded health efforts in Haiti are being leveraged for health impact and the role of the Haitian government in that process.

In 2009, a high rate of HIV & AIDS and other sexually transmitted infections, combined with a lack of leadership to address the crisis in Haiti's Cite Soleil area, resulted in a large population of disaffected youth who believed that the situation was hopeless. As part of Management Sciences for Health's (MSH) "Leadership Development Program," funded by the US Agency of International Development (USAID), young participants from the Haitian NGO Maison l'Arc-en-Ciel (MAEC) learned that they can make a difference. In their rap song entitled "Apprends à faire face aux défis," (Learn to Confront Challenges) the young leaders share what they have learned [33] (in Creole with English subtitles).
