INVITATION TO SHARE WHERE TO TURN RESOURCES

NYDIS Announced closure of city's last remaining 9/11 recovery program today.

Slowly but surely all of the available 9/11 services are shutting down.

Please be advised that we will continue to link all available 9/11 services through our Where to Turn Crisis Relief Network. (www.where-to-turn.org)

We will continue to keep you updated with 9/11 news with the help of Arnie Korotkin and will continue to post upcoming 9/11 events on our calendar.

As services are discontinued we will try to connect those in need with remaining resources.

We have over 800 Resources linked to our site as our services have expanded to any victim of tragedy.

If you are a service provider or a not for profit organization and would like to be included please forward a short description of your organization as well as a link to your website to info@where-to-turn.org and we will include you in our network. (civic and community groups invited as well)


If you do not have a web site we will create a web page so that your organization can be displayed.

Please note that we are trying to collect information on all Staten Island Organizations and link them.

The gloomy economic forecast will make it even more difficult for small not for profits that are the backbone of support for many in need.

By sharing information in addition to a little common sense coordination we hope to make people aware of all of the services still available to them on Staten Island and throughout the country.


We will also be coordinating joint projects to share resources as we are currently doing with the Friends of Abandoned Cemeteries with the Veteran Grave Markers.

We hope that you will take advantage of our site and in doing so help us help those in need.
