A New Hampshire ​woman and her child have been kidnapped in Haiti, according to a faith-based humanitarian group who employs the mother as a nurse.

Representatives for the group El⁣ Roi Haiti said that Alix Dorsainvil and her young child were kidnapped on Thursday morning near Port-au-Prince.

They were⁢ abducted from El Roi Haiti’s ‍campus while‍ “serving in community ministry,” according to El Roi​ Haiti president and co-founder Jason Brown.

“Alix is a deeply‍ compassionate and loving person who considers Haiti her home and the Haitian people her friends and family,” Brown said​ in a statement on Saturday. “Alix has worked tirelessly as our school and community nurse to bring relief ‍to those who⁤ are‍ suffering as she loves and serves the people of ⁢Haiti ⁤in the name of Jesus.”

Dorsainvil is from New Hampshire and has been⁤ living and working in Haiti “for some time now,” according ⁣to the group.

She works as ⁢a school and community nurse for⁢ the organization and is married to its director, with ⁢whom she‍ has a child.

On Saturday, ⁢a representative for the United ‍States State Department confirmed to the press that the government is aware of allegations of the kidnapping of two American⁤ citizens in Haiti.

“We are in regular contact with Haitian ‍authorities and will continue to work ⁤with them⁢ and our U.S. government interagency partners,” the spokesperson maintained. “The U.S. Department of State and our embassies and consulates abroad have no higher priority than the safety and security of U.S. citizens overseas.”

The ⁣reported ⁢kidnapping comes only days after the State Department ordered the departure​ of family members of U.S. government workers and non-emergency U.S. government employees in Haiti on Thursday.

“U.S. citizens in Haiti should depart Haiti as soon as possible by commercial or other privately available transportation options, in light of the current security situation and infrastructure ⁣challenges,” a State Department advisory stated.

The State⁣ Department has⁣ not ​provided any more information at this time.
