Haitian National Police

The Haitian National Police (PNH) is the official law enforcement agency responsible for maintaining public order, enforcing laws, and ensuring safety in Haiti. Established in 1995, it operates under the Ministry of Justice and aims to combat crime, investigate violations, and support community security efforts. The PNH faces challenges such as limited resources, political instability, and ongoing violence, which impact its effectiveness. Despite these hurdles, it plays a crucial role in Haiti’s efforts to establish safety and uphold the rule of law, working alongside communities and other security entities.
