Blog Post: Hurricane Survivors Forum Offers Healing & Celebrates Life


posted Thursday, July 31, 2008 4:06 PM

It's hard to believe, but it's been three years since Hurricane's Katrina and Rita brought massive devastation to the Gulf Coast Region. For so many, life has never been the same. Homes destroyed, neighborhoods wiped off the map, lives lost.... August 2005 brought the largest natural disaster in U.S. history

Jobing.com has teamed up with Career & Recovery Resources to acknowledge the three year anniversary of the storms that changed so many lives. The event, A Katrina Survivor's Forum, will be held each Thursday evening in the month of August at 2304 Caroline in Midtown. Events last from 5:30PM - 7:00PM each night & the highlights are as follows:

-August 7th A Journey to Healing

-August 14th Job Seeking & Retention *

-August 21st Financial Planning

-August 28th A Celebration of Life Candlelight Vigil

*on August 14th, I will be speaking at the Forum on job search techniques, tips on landing the perfect job and successfully marketing yourself to employers.

I regret I'm just locating this site; it's just what a friend needs.She is seeking employment, after taking the past year completing a novel; this project is now being edited. However, I 've shared my home & computer, etc. but she apppears in depression, unable to really get functional. She has aided her son in getting established in Houston with the small funds they rec'd in 2006. She is a survivor of Katrina, most intelligent & otherwise unfettered, accept, she's lost much and has little. How can I truly help, rather than being a crutch?
