Intentional Community Organizer Training For Mission To Haiti
From Gia Hamilton: Hi all, Thanks for the ongoing communication. Gris Gris Lab is putting together an "intentional community organizer training" for people who are interested in going to Haiti to serve on the ground as capable relief help. There are a number of trainings we will be hosting including: agriculture, construction, healing/health, education, Kreyol language, and self care. If anyone is interested in participating, has ideas about how to make this happen, or knows of possible trainers please let me know. Feel free to forward this note along. I think it would be really great if WHJI could prepare something around gender and disaster. We're planning a potluck dinner meeting of interested parties for next Thursday the 28th at 6pm. Let me know. Sending love, vignette & gia

SDT Haitian Relief
SDT HAITIAN RELIEF EFFORT UNDERWAY
January 21, 2010 We received a call yesterday from Eric Klein, of CAN-DO.org, an organization that provides relief in emergency situations. Eric is on the ground in Haiti and with doctors who are dealing with horrific conditions. He reports that there are hundreds of people who have sustained compound fractures and other lacerations during and since the initial earthquake a week ago. Because there are no supplies to treat the fractures, doctors are performing civil war-style amputations on patients. There are many more wounded who cannot be helped because of the lack of anesthesia and medicines. The doctors fear that for many patients infection will set in and the majority of the people that have not been seen will die within one week, if not treated. SDT is mobilizing flights to send individual triage stations and other types of medical supplies to Haiti. A triage station is an all-in-one shipment of supplies, enough to treat 80 people a day. These stations and supplies are necessary to save lives. Sidney has contracted with IBC Airways Inc., a private cargo plane company, to deliver triage stations to Haiti. This cargo plane has approval to land in Port Au Prince. It is scheduled to leave New Orleans ASAP. We are asking for donations to help finance additional flights to deliver supplies. With the help of Eric and the CAN-DO.org, we can immediately help in this effort to save lives. We have already received a $5,000 donation from St. Bernard Parish Sheriff Jack Stevens to defray costs of the initial flight. SDT is in the process of setting up a non-profit to fund additional flights to Haiti. If you can make a donation, deliver or mail a check made payable to IBC Airways, Inc., to 937 Esplanade Avenue, NOLA 70116. Until the 501 C3 nonprofit organization is established, your donation will not be tax deductible. We will document these flights and you will see firsthand the immediate impact it will have on this very desperate situation. Our partners:
• Eric Klein, CEO, CAN-DO.org, www.CAN-DO.org (SDT Partner on the ground in Haiti)• Medical Teams International & their partners (www.medicalteams.org)• Philips Health Care & SIGN w/ Dr. Zirkle (www.sign-post.org/) (Medical Supplies, donors & teams)• Dr. Louis Argus & AMAG @ HUEH General Hospital in PAP (Haitian doctors on ground)• Frank Folino of the Franciscan Missionaries • Dr. Cory Hebert (Local Medical Expert)

New Orleans Friends Of Haiti
The Association Haitienne de Développement Humain/Haitian Association for Human Development, Inc., (AHDH) would like to enlist your assistance as it plans an emergency humanitarian trip to Haiti, which is in addition to its regular Winter medical mission scheduled for February 2010. AHDH is a charitable 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that was founded in November 1986 by a group of Haitians in New Orleans who decided to pool their professional, intellectual, economical and cultural resources in order to promote the welfare of Haitians by contributing to and/or instituting humanitarian programs. For the past 23 years, AHDH has been leading medical expeditions to the rural county (Commune) of La Vallee de Jacmel in Haiti . Please visit our website for more information about our organization: http://haitiahdh.org/ Like us, you were probably shocked to learn about the tragedy that struck Haiti on Tuesday, January 12th in the form of a 7.0 magnitude earthquake. We, at AHDH, were most quietly preparing for our Winter 2010 medical mission, our 46th, when that bombshell hit. Following the four hurricanes of 2008, which wrought great devastation, Haiti is now facing a disaster of unimaginable proportion. We, at AHDH, are headed to Haiti (some of us the weekend of January 16th) and plan on taking with us as much medical supplies as possible to supplement what we have in place at the Hospital St. Joseph Codeva in La Vallee de Jacmel, which is, thankfully, intact. The hospital is well-stocked with surgical supplies, 3 OR beds ready, a recovery room and post-op areas, among other things, which will allow us to assist the injureds who could be transferred from anywhere in the country. We would like to express our gratitude for all the calls and offerings of support that we have received and continue to receive from those of you who have embraced our cause before and who are so willing to help again. In addition to those who have generously contributed of your time and expertise over the years, we have countless new medical and non-medical professionals and individuals who are ready to travel to Haiti immediately to support our mission. The current fundraiser seeks to raise funds to help defray the cost of medical supplies in support of the earthquake relief effort. Your contribution is 100% tax deductible. There are two easy ways to donate! 1) Through the Firstgiving website, which is simple, fast and totally secure. http://www.firstgiving.com

Vegan Bake Sale For Haiti
From Post Punk Kitchen "As you must know by now, Haiti was struck with a devastating earthquake that has killed tens of thousands of people and caused who only knows how much destruction. It was already a sucky time for Haitians and this is just heartbreaking. I don’t know about you, but I can’t get over there to volunteer and I don’t like the feeling of being utterly useless and hopeless. This afternoon I put out a call for bake sale volunteers on twitter and facebook and I got a really great response. I’m hoping that we can not only raise money, raise awareness but also remind ourselves of what really matters. Cupcakes! Wait, no…community! I’m writing this note to have a central place to exchange info and help organize in our areas. Let’s show our support for the people of Haiti and harm no animals in the process. If you are planning a bake sale, please get in touch here or email me: postpunkkitchen@gmail.com. I will update this list as more info becomes available. If you have other ideas for helping out then let us know!"
Contact: vegan.yat@gmail.com for more info!

In Haiti, Mental Aftershocks Could Be Far-Reaching - CNN.com
"The extent to which we are able to assist people in rebuilding their lives becomes a tremendously important driver of whether or not the psychopathology that is caused by the trauma will go on to become severe, and how long it lasts," Galea said. In the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina in 2005, researchers found that stressors such as not having a job, not having access to insurance and not being able to get paid contributed to the symptoms of mental illness, Galea said. "Rebuilding lives, rebuilding social supports, rebuilding financial and practical supports will go a long way to minimizing the health consequences of the event that has passed," he said.
