An Empowering Solution to Human Crisis

LETS is changing the face of individuals and communities in crisis through preventative education, proven tools, self-sustaining employment and manufacturing models. The end goal of any LETS initiative is to empower life choices and prevent children being born into situations where they are victims of poverty, abuse or trafficking. Founded in Jackson, Tennessee and honed in communities in crisis in the US and Haiti, LETS is impacting thousands of lives globally.

LETS Vision

A world without human trafficking, child poverty and abuse.

LETS Mission

To prevent pain and provide hope. To empower individuals to make informed decisions about their family planning, health and wellbeing and uplift communities in crisis through education and self-sustaining employment. This work will prevent unplanned pregnancies, increase quality of life and end human trafficking, child poverty and abuse.

The LETS Model

LETS Impact

LETS is expanding rapidly and impacting communities across the globe in both developed and undeveloped countries.

Deepest gratitude expressed! One of my prized moments

LETS Beginnings

In 2014, wellness speaker and educator Kristin Van Wey began her service work in Haiti, focusing on improving health conditions for the local population through education and essential oils.

Early on, Kristin became aware of some serious risks to the youth in the community at large. She noticed a significantly higher than expected number of orphanages and also discovered that four out of every five “orphans” actually had at least one living parent. Kristin also observed a correlation between this orphan anomaly and sex and human trafficking; she wondered if there could be a common solution. The big question in her mind was: Where were all these orphaned and trafficked children coming from?

Upon investigation, Kristin discovered the higher incidence of orphan children could be attributed to a combination of poverty, lack of reproductive education, and job scarcity. Many of the Haitian women, both single and married, didn’t want to conceive, but they were simply unaware of how to manage their fertility. Children were being born to teens or families with no means to provide for them, putting them at great risk for starvation, sex trafficking, being sold, given away or orphaned.

Kristin knew it was imperative to work with preventative core issues that were devastating the entire country and not just the symptoms. She was inspired to address what she believed were primary solutions, affecting the heart of poverty and trafficking directly.

The truth is that this situation isn’t unique to Haiti. Unplanned children born into poverty and crisis in both developed and developing countries are equally at risk of abuse.

LETS Evolution

In 2016, Kristin’s vision resulted in a comprehensive and duplicable pilot project, which centered on self-reliance rather than the short-term effects of handouts.

In addition to creating local jobs, generating resources for food, shelter and health care so that children and families could live self-reliant, dignified lives, it was, and continues to be a hands-on learning program teaching reproductive health, human development and basic health and wellbeing.

One important aspect to the success of the training is the Lunar Essential Tracker System (“LETS”) Bracelet, which helps girls and women of childbearing age conceptualize and track their most fertile days and share this journey with their partner. The bracelet materials are manufactured by hand, employing artisans in LETS manufacturing centers in communities in developing countries.

LETS has seen amazing results from the LETS Training Program. Thousands of LETS bracelets have been distributed with comprehensive family planning and health education, our instructor training program is expanding exponentially, reaching more women, couples and youth in need and people in communities in crisis have been sustainably employed. Most importantly, our students are communicating that they feel empowered to make informed choices when it comes to family planning, pregnancy and basic health – stopping child trafficking, poverty and abuse at its source. And, excitement is growing.

LETS is not content with this life changing program changing the lives of people in just one community or country. We want to change the world, community by community, life by life.

We’ve packaged the education program in our instructor and train-the-trainer courses so that more people can feel confident educating others. We have expanded the manufacturing model into other communities. Our bracelets are changing the lives of women, couples and youth all over the globe, from a girl in America to a woman in Haiti to a family in Uganda. We want you to join us in this cause, buy our bracelets, join our educational programs and donate and partner with us. You will not only empower individuals and communities but will be empowering yourself.
