I am working on a project of trying to collect good web sites suitable for
middle and high school students to get additional information on any and all
health topics taught in health class. I would love to see any lists of your
favorites that are student friendly, from reliable enough groups that they will
not come and go quickly, keep up to date with current information, charge no

If there is enough interest, I will make the final combined list available on

Message copied from Billings Peace Keepers Forum
11 Sep 2005
Anne Gervasi is a licensed psychologist. She donated her time and her talent
working with Katrina refuges at first, Reunion Arena and then, the Civic Center.
This is her first hand account and reaction to what she had to deal with. If you
blog, please put this out there. We want everyone in the country to read this
first-hand account of the horror that is Dallas. If you have an extensive
mailing list like I do, please forward it, too.
First-hand reaction to Katrina refuges
There are so many words that come to mind. As a scholar I am thinking Diaspora,
social displacement, systemic disruption, mass trauma, pandemic and unbelievable
chaos. As a clinician, I am looking at something that we have never been trained
to handle in this country=97a level of victimization and its resultant
psycho-social ripples that mandate a whole new field of clinical practice-mass
victimology.
Katrina kicked the top off of a racist and social termite's nest that has been
growing beneath the ground since Reconstruction. These were deeply religious
people who have lost God and for that matter, faith and hope. Hope has been
replaced by magical thinking that augurs a second and more terrible level of
social disruption and anger not far down the road.
Over and over, I kept hearing a framing of self that puzzled me until I realized
that this is how it must have been for blacks after Reconstruction. Over and
over, people said, "everyone has been so wonderful, thank you, thank you." When
I said, "there is no need to thank us, you are our fellow citizens and we want
to help you=97American to American," there would be a long pause as if the idea
of being the same never struck them before.
They are angry and it is growing. The system failed them. For that matter, there
is no system because all the safeguards and preparations that we thought were in
place aren't there. I have been begging anyone who would listen over the past
two years for a program in mass victimology to prepare for the next tragedy
after 9/11. Now it is here and the lack of organization, science, and
preparation are going to result in terrible consequences for us as a nation.
Imagine sending people who have been assimilated into the most stable
demographic population in America into cities and towns all over the US who are
as unprepared as the victims to understand their sense of dislocation and their
support needs. The lower Gulf States have a language, a history, a social
dynamic, a faith, a societal structure, and a ritual system unlike any other in
America. These people have lived in and been acculturated to this system for
generations. When the dust settles and the mud dries, we are going to see all
over America, a nation that will lose patience with the needs of a foreign
refugee population. Abandoned once again, the fury and the trauma that have been
momentarily quieted by the outpouring of empathy and support post-crisis, will
arise larger and more terrible than we have been equipped as a nation to handle.
I hear it now, over and over, in the survivor stories, in the loss of self, and
the need to reclaim dignity and power.
Right now, numbness is being replaced by magical thinking. "People want me
here=97here is better. I think I'll stay here." What is going to happen when
reality sets in? The bulk of people who are planning to stay don't understand
the system here. Even though we abut borders, we are a vastly different nation.
At least we are southerners. What is going to happen to the thousands being sent
to Connecticut or Illinois or New Jersey? They are being offered free
apartments, furniture etc., by generous and well meaning people who haven't
thought the long term consequences through very well. A lot of the apartments
are in areas where they won't have transportation or jobs. What is going to
happen six months down the road when the magic wears off and the help slowly
fades? How about the holidays for a people who thrive on ritual, tradition, and
celebration?
The trauma they are experiencing is so profound that we have no cultural term or
machinery set up for it.
The dead and nameless bodies by the thousands rotting in the water, arriving
dead on the buses with them, or dying next to them in the shelters are a huge
festering wound that no one dares mention. This is a true Diaspora the likes of
which we haven't seen since Reconstruction. The immediate needs that are being
addressed ignore the greater traumas yet to be spoken.
No governmental system can survive the number of wounded and disillusioned
people that we are going to see sprouting up all over America. Something far
greater and more organized has to be done.
Then to the helpers and what is happening there. Turf wars have already sprung
up. In the name of "I know better than you do," chaos and wasted energy are
multiplying. The Red Cross was initially in charge of certifying the credentials
of the helping therapists.
After Oklahoma City and the pretenders who arrived there, this seemed like a
wonderful clearing house.
Everyone who wanted to help had to go through a brief orientation and a thorough
checking of credentials.
Only licensed professionals were allowed. Driver's licenses were checked for
criminal records. This seemed to be a common sense excellent approach to the
question of rapists, pedophiles, and other thugs being denied access to a
vulnerable population. Actually, things ran better than I expected at the
beginning.
Then in came the physicians who I guess felt that their non-existent coursework
in this area qualified them to better run things. Immediate chaos,
disorganization, and all sorts of ersatz "helpers"
began running around. They grabbed our current Red Cross badges and then stopped
us from going back on the floor to finish seeing our patients without the new
badges, which they just happened to be out of. We had an optometrist with
prescriptive lenses but no glasses or readers and no idea when he'd ever see
any.
We had a deaf booth but no deaf helpers. In the midst of all this chaos,
thousands and thousands of the walking wounded mixing with the powerless
well-intentioned came the whispered word, pandemic.
Lots of people are suddenly getting sick, and we have to have precautions. Don't
eat or drink or touch the patients. We only have one bottle of disinfectant in
the mental health section, so come back here=97the length of the Convention
Center=97after each patient.
"What of the people who are being cycled out of here?"
"What are we sending into the population?" If people are sick and contagious,
where are the precautions to separate the vulnerable? What of precautions such
as masks and gloves to keep the medical professionals and first responders safe?
All the here and now is suspended in the hope that maybe tomorrow will take care
of itself and the worst won't happen. Those are the question we asked on the
first day. NO ONE IS IN CHARGE.
Therefore, there is no consistent answer or approach or forethought. I am no
infection guru but as soon as I heard on day one that people with no water were
forced to drink water with bloated bodies, feces, and rats in it, the thought of
cholera, typhoid, and delayed disease immediately occurred to me. What if the
fears of disease are correct? People are fanning out throughout America. Where
is the CDC?
In the age of computers, we are doing worse than the pencil squibs and the rolls
of paper to log in the displaced after World War II. Literacy and computer
access seems to be considered as a given for people who have lost it all.
Accessing FEMA is through a website. People are in shelters waiting for FEMA to
come "in a few days." "Be patient." The Lieutenant Governor of Louisiana pumped
my hand and replied to my desperate queries about how to help people find their
parents and babies, "Be patient=97give us a few days."
The mothers who have lost their children, and there are many, and the children
who have lost their parents, have had it with the "be patient" response.
The shelters are surprisingly silent. It is hard to find the traumatized mothers
because they cry silently. One mother asked how patient I would be if my
five-month-old was somewhere unknown for over a week. Over and over, others
would ask, "Do you think my baby has milk and diapers?" "Do you think they are
being kind to my baby?" And then, so softly that I would have to ask them to
repeat, "Do you think my baby is okay?" My response=97the convenient lie. Every
time I said, "of course," I prayed to God that it was true.
I am sure that there is a special ring of hell for the
media: The survivor stories end-on-end for the titillation of the public. I
heard Soledad O'Brien say something about the still unrecognized need to address
the psychological trauma. I sent a response to the CNN tip-line that there were
hordes of every manner of mental health professional working 24/7. CNN's
response? Dr. Phil and the stories of the survivors"
on Larry King. They went to the guy who lost his clinical license for serious
professional infractions to tell the stories? I could see the "entertainer"
down there gathering tales of the already exploited so that he and Larry could
both pimp their ratings. The real unsung mental health heroes, the counselors,
psychologists, social workers and psychiatrists dealing with un-medicated
psychosis and severe traumatic responses were represented by Dr.
"Keep-It-Real"? We don't need tabloid help from the media. Scream about
accountability and point fingers for those who can't. Where is the real help
from the media? Help us find those babies and parents and missing family. We
have a man in one of the shelters who is caring for four kids. They call him
uncle. He is actually the cousin of the fianc=E9 of the mother who is probably
dead. The children are silent. They sit and play and weep with open mouths that
can't scream.
Where is the media to scream for them?
Finally, to hell with this "no blame game." The stories that I know to be true
are enough to make me boil. The compassionate foreign doctors who can't find
anyone to validate their credentials, the expensive mobile hospital still
sitting parked waiting for federal paperwork to move into Louisiana, the five
C130s sitting on the Tarmac in San Diego since the night of Katrina, still
waiting for orders to move.
Where the hell are the beds? We have some old people sleeping on hot plastic
pool floats with no sheets.
They are still no showers for people who have walked for hours through fetid
waters. Their skin is breaking out in rashes. Still no showers. Where the hell
are the DeCon showers bought with Homeland Security money that can shower 30
people at a time. The convention centers have no bathing facilities so the filth
and skin reactions are getting worse. What of lice? There are no clothes for the
really heavy and large. I was reduced to writing the women I knew who went to
Weight Watchers to comb their attics for "before" outfits.
When I arrived with the sack of my gatherings, I had to engage in a full scale
battle and puff myself up to all my red-headed doctor fury to get them
distributed to the women still sitting there in their stinking clothes.
The survivors are like the Mayor of New Orleans who apologized to George Bush
for his anger. "If we tell the way we feel, maybe help will stop." All the
apologists on the air distancing George and his co-vacationers and idiot
appointees should be impeached. I liked Nagin when he called it all bullshit. He
was right. How about Haley Barbour complaining about the lack of support for his
state?
Did he so soon forget his past life and what he did to set up this government of
spin artists? If they had acted like a government the body count would be less.
The aid would be better managed. The days of filth, and feces, and death would
have been ended sooner. God help all of the poseurs in charge when these folks
finally get in touch with their justifiable rage. Did you see the White House's
logo for the hurricane?
George and some asshole in a ball cap against a background of Katrina waving the
flag. They had the energy and time for a nice logo but no time to get the
elements of help in gear?
The tragedy is leavened by some moments of farce, the guy who arrived with a
case of Gucci shoes in various sizes that he "saved" from his closet. The man
wearing twelve expensive watches up his arm. I guess he is a punctual sort.
There are the too-poignant-for-words vignettes. I saw a lady sitting on a
blanket holding a photo of two children that she had pulled from the water. She
kept crying and looking at it. I thought they were her children. She didn't know
whose they were. They were just losses and she mourned them.
Of course there were the criminals, thugs, and mobsters. One of the greatest
indictments of the "spin machine" that is going to come from this situation will
be the repeated characterizations of the victims as lawless and criminal. Over
and over I heard people tell me about how ashamed they were to be portrayed that
way. Ninety-nine percent of these people never were characterized as anything
but lawful and good citizens. In their most desperate hours to be reduced to
taking food and water to survive and then to be lumped with the television
thieves and the shooters is too shameful for most of them to bear. I heard from
hospital employees that survived on a cup of watered grits so that the patients
could make it. And then I heard had they had to hide the ones that didn't in
closets to keep up the morale of the others.
The people that survived this tragedy and the people who help them all know one
truth. The help and the love and the care that has been extended to them have
been on a citizen-to-citizen basis. The churches, doctors, therapists, and
ordinary citizens who are giving all they can in time and resources are managing
to band-aid at the most elementary level-neighbor to neighbor. The government
has failed. We are more vulnerable now than before 9/11 because faith in the
system is gone. No system can sustain itself as a viable entity when the
citizenry are the walking wounded. Victims implode a system from within and
expose its decay. This is the beginning of the end unless we can get a drastic
change of philosophy and restore the government to a system "by the people for
the people." Right now nobody down here believes we have that.

Colleagues,
A number of people have responded to my call for uniforms and school supplies
for school children (Mobile residents and refugees from MS & LA). Most have
asked for more information regarding the types of school supplies needed and
details about where to send the donations. In addition to school supplies, the
school system is asking for WalMart gift cards that they can distribute to these
families. These can be used for uniforms, school supplies or other basic
necessities.
The Department of Occupational Therapy is serving as a collection point at the
University of South Alabama. A former university professor (Dr. Judy Stout) is
now serving on the school board- she is our contact.
You can send your donations to:
Dr. Marjorie Scaffa, Chair
Department of Occupational Therapy
University of South Alabama
1504 Springhill Ave. Room 5108
Mobile, AL 36604
Please include your contact information so that we may acknowledge receipt of
your donations. Dr. Stout has provided a list of school supplies needed by grade
level. The list follows the body of this email. The numbers after each item
represent the amount needed per student. You can create student packets and
label them by grade level, or you can simply donate a variety of items and we
will sort and package them here.
Thanks for any assistance you can provide. I imagine MS & LA have similar needs
but I have been unable to identify contacts in those states. If we get an
oversupply here in AL we will certainly see to it that they are transported to
the other school systems along the Gulf Coast.

Hello,
Is anyone else have problems with American Airlines refunding your ticket for
the APHA conference? I live about 2 hours from Philly, so I won't be taking a
plane. APHA has told me that American Airlines will change and refund peoples
money because of the contract, but they will not put it in writing. I was told
by American Airlines that they will not refund it only give a voucher to use
within a year, which won't work for me. APHA has also told me that they can't do
anything else to help. Also they said they could refund me if it was a
refundable ticket but they said it was not. That was never mentioned to me when
I made the reservation nor did it say that on my e-ticket. Does anyone have any
idea of what I else might help? I know many people who live in the
DC/Maryland/PA/NJ areas must be in the same boat here. It will be stupid to take
a plane to Philly from BWI.

The Center for Health and Health Care in Schools (CHHCS) News alert -- September
12, 2005
Clergy Urge Congress Not to Make Cuts in Low-Income Health Care:
A report originally scheduled to call attention to the potential effects on
children's health of imposing Medicaid access fees became also a strong plea
from church leaders in New Orleans and the Gulf Coast for extending federal
health care benefits to low-income victims of hurricane Katrina.

Perhaps there is another conference or destination that you can go to within a
year. Where is APHA 2006? Can you use the voucher for that flight?
Jet Blue gave me a voucher good for one year. I will be using towards the SOPHE
mid-year in Las Vegas.
