In an effort to address the growing concerns of Haitian-Americans living in New York, the MediSys Health Network has established a Resource Center at one of its Family Care Centers and will offer free group and individual counseling to New York residents.
The Resource Center, located in Brooklyn at 1095 Flatbush Avenue, is equipped with computer and telephone access. Individuals will be able to use the facility to call loved ones in Haiti and access updated information on the region. It's open today from noon to 7:00 p.m. and Saturday, January 16 from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. For hours beginning the week of Monday, January 18, please call 718-240-5345.
