Staten Island - LTRO - One Year Anniversary of Superstorm Sandy

      

sisandyhelp.org

Greetings,

This Tuesday, on the one year anniversary of Superstorm Sandy, everyone impacted by this tragic storm will be commeorating the events of last year in their own way.

Some will feel most comforted by staying home, or gathering with family or friends, or in their religious communities. Some will join in the many anniversary events happening around the island, seeking the strength of the broader Sandy-impacted community.

Whether you are a resident who lost everything, or a caregiver, or a service provider who is feeling very tired, this anniversary is a stressful time.

Be sure to take care of yourself. Rest. Talk about how you are feeling with family and friends. Pay attention to your health.

And remember that many emotional care services available on Staten Island are open to both impacted residents and their caregivers.

You can talk to a crisis counselor confidentiality and free of cost  by calling any of these numbers:
