New York City Haiti Earthquake Assistance Guide:
The purpose of this New York City Haiti Earthquake Assistance Guide is to provide information about relief services available to those impacted by the January 2010 Haiti earthquake. It is arranged in sections based the types of services provided by different non-profit organizations and governmental agencies. Each listing includes basic information on the available services, how the agency providing the service can be contacted, and eligibility requirements when applicable. Although these agencies offer numerous ongoing services, some of their programs are offered only during emergencies, and they depend on resources with limited availability.

The inclusion of an organization in this guide does not guarantee access to its services nor is it an endorsement of the organization. Most services are free, but resources designated with ($) are not free; the client may have to pay for the item or service. Updates for this guide are ongoing, and additional information on assistance, services, and programs will be provided with each edition.

Please contact Mary Opler at oplerm@nyredcross.org if you know of a service that should be added to this guide. Be sure to include as much contact information as possible so your update can be verified.
