Disaster and Recovery

1. Disaster & Recovery
 Disaster and Recovery is needed for victims, responders
as well as children when natural and environmental
disasters occur. We will attempt to address the different
emotions such as anxiety and adjustment
disorder, depression and PTSD experienced my citizens
who find themselves in the middle of these disasters.
 For this wiki group forum we will be using the Katrina
Evacuees as a our focal point of study. We will also
provide a real life study conducted after Katrina that noted
subsequent to Katrina no respondents were diagnosed
with any mental health issues.

2. Disaster & Recovery
 The study, also highlighted that the 3 states hardest states
hit by Katrina were the poorest with 20% of residents
living in poverty. (Mississippi, Louisiana and Alabama).
 I think this is very crucial when we look at and examine
some the issues that those who lived in these areas
experienced after Katrina and even now. Another
interesting fact was almost 75% of the people reported
missing and the majority of those killed by Hurricane
Katrina were African American.
