Special edition of intelihealth - important sites

September 18, 2001

Thought some of these sites might help someone out there....so I " m passing

them along. At the bottom of the list are ways to contact the Red Cross,

Salvation Army and other ligit sites.

THIS IS A SPECIAL EDITION OF INTELIHEALTH CONNECT

Shock, bewilderment, sorrow, panic, anger -- as a nation, we're all

caught up in a tangle of powerful emotions. Nothing on the scale of the

terrorist attacks in New York and Washington has ever happened before,

so it is almost too much to process and internalize.

As a service to our daily e-mail subscribers, InteliHealth has compiled

a comprehensive package of news stories and special features designed to

help make sense of our experience -- perhaps, in a small way, to begin

the process of healing. You'll find information from mental-health

experts on how to talk with children about the terrorist attack, as well

as how to understand and deal with your own feelings. For those who seek

ways to channel their energies into constructive efforts, we offer a

story on how to help. If you are worried about the impact of

the tragedy on public health, we provide answers to frequently asked

questions. If you feel the need to share your feelings, we invite

you to contribute your thoughts to our message boards.

The editors and staff of InteliHealth extend to the families and friends

of the victims of the attack our sincere condolences, and to those involved

in the recovery, our gratitude for their selfless and heroic efforts.
