Detroit NonProfit Group Going to New Orleans for Documentary

It is one year ago we were mesermized by the devastation of hurricane Katrina. Now it is time to see how the populous is emotionally, mentally and spiritually dealing with the rebuilding of not just the houses but their lives.
 

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

PRLog (Press Release)Sep 25, 2006 – Detroit, MI (September 25, 2006 ) Global Projects for Hope, Help & Healing founder and CEO Dr. Sabrina Black, Executive Director Pamela Hudson will take their message New Orleans – Wounded Healer – Trauma Training as well as complete a documentary on conditions of the people one year after Katrina September 28, 2006. The mission will be to create a documentary on the emotional, spiritual and mental health needs of those who have survived the Katrina storm and to provide care for the civil servants, counselors, clergy, caregivers, and psychosocial service providers in the New Orleans area.
The vision for this trip was given four weeks after we returned from northern Uganda, Africa working in the Gulu region -- This is an area which has been heavily impacted by the war. While there we conducted Trauma Training for those who have also been impacted by the war. Our objective was accomplished: to train and empower counselors and other psychosocial support providers involved in counseling people that are traumatized by the 20-year-old Northern Uganda war.
GPH3 has noticed that, given the nature of the work done by counselors, clergy, civil servants, and psychosocial support providers helping the Katrina victims and survivors, they are indeed also highly vulnerable to primary and secondary trauma. Many of these individuals who themselves survived the Katrina storm double as victims/survivors and at the same time still shouldered the responsibility of providing care to others
Sabrina Black has traveled to London, Romania, West Indies, Uganda, South Africa, Nigeria and a host of other countries extensively throughout the United States. She has worked in churches, prisons, schools, rape centers and orphanages with those stricken by poverty, war, and AIDS.

"Their (Global Project) purpose is to empower and assist people of all nations who experience economical, mental health, and social problems.”

This trip will further support Global Projects missions to help wherever there are hurting people.
If you would like to make a difference by donating or sponsoring anyone of Global Projects work feel free to contact us at 313-205-7300. Your help would be greatly appreciated.
