Recovering in New York and Elsewhere
The love and solidarity, which can grow from the suffering that people with mental illness understand first hand, is what my company is striving to communicate with those who have been through the traumas of the disasters of our lives. We immediately understand and feel compelled to respond to the victims of shared disasters. Especially, at the time of the disaster. Peer support will serve as a vital complement to professional services. We focus on promoting conferences held from the big corporations to the small hotels New York has and even with just the residence of the city.
Following the destruction of the twin tower in New York on 9/11 and the before that the bombing of the Murrah Building in Oklahoma City , mental health consumers provided valuable peer support servicing all traumatized individuals. Much like New York, peers are also being mobilized to assist with the relief efforts in the devastation of the aftermath of hurricane Katrina in Louisiana and then hurricane Rita .
We let the corporations and the small businesses know just how the peer-based, recovery approach assist those with mental illness following disasters must be consistent with crisis counseling following disasters. Peer support not only provides relief from trauma, but assists in peoples’ recovery from mental illness. Mental health consumers’, such as the employees of corporations and hotels will experience recovery from a vast array of trauma due to our sheer on-site experience which has made us well equipped to assist people at times of disaster and well after the disaster. The role of the passive victim of a disaster will shift to an active agent providing assistance plays a valuable role in relief from trauma, as well as recovery from mental illness.
A case example, hurricanes Katrina and Rita, presented an enormity of challenges where we had the advantage of providing peer support services. From those two disasters alone, it was so clear to us how important it is to be prepared for disasters proactively by developing a network of peer supporters in all businesses.
