The devastating earthquake that hit Haiti on January 12, 2010 has had an impact around the world. Those living in Haiti and those bringing aid will be dealing with the effects of directly experiencing a trauma, as will those who lost someone they loved. However, there are effects for everyone who has witnessed the events on the news, especially those who have family and friends in Haiti. For anyone who feels the impact or knows someone who has, there are a variety of resources available to you, including Counseling at Psychological Services. CAPS has also created a webpage listing a variety of resources at:

Counseling and Psychological Services is also offering a debriefing meeting for anyone impacted by the earthquake. It will be Wednesday, January 27, 2010. It will be held from 6:00 pm – 7:00 pm at African American Student Affairs in the first floor conference room at 1914 Sheridan Road. If you have any questions about this, please contact Paulette Stronczek at 847491-2151 or p-stronczek@northwestern.edu.
