"Lakou" is a Haitian Creole term from the French phrase “la cour” meaning courtyard. In the Haitian culture, friends and family would build their homes around a shared yard, a "lakou". Members of the lakou worked cooperatively and supported each other. The lakou would be a place to come together, create memories and strengthen the community.
Here, at Lakou, we believe bringing people together in a welcoming environment will strengthen bonds both locally and in our surrounding communities.
