Here is a video in two parts regarding extreme poverty in a marginal slum of SDQ, migration of Haitians with a slight emphasis on pregnant Haitian woman that migrate to the DR to give birth and receive adequate medical care, and poverty in traditionally ignored parts of the country. It ends with a mention the initiatives that have been taken by the current administration in conjunction with the United Nations to combat this problem.
For those of you that are very easily moved by seeing images of extreme poverty or problems in general, be advised that some of the images may be too strong.
