TY - JOUR PY - 2010// TI - Once the Earth Stood Still (Part II): Mental Health Services in Post-Quake Haiti JO - MEDICC review A1 - Gorry, Conner SP - 44 EP - 47 VL - 12 IS - 3 N2 - Natural disasters of the magnitude of the January 2010 earthquake in Haiti rend societies, exposing social inequities and laying bare weak disaster mitigation strategies. These tragic events not only test the limits of communities, families, and individuals, but also reveal the strength and mettle of survivors.

For participants in a mental health program led by Cuban health professionals in Haiti, this resilience has-at times, if only momentarily-translated into smiles, laughter, and hope.
