We Need A Social Psychological Welfare Team!!!

claudechachopeterson16112017Lately we have seen an increase in violence on our island.
I believe it is a direct result of the hopelessness and post traumatic stress which our people are experiencing.
The level of devastation Irma caused is just like that in a war zone and the mental effects are very similar.
The reality is setting in as people lose their jobs and run out of money.
Early on, after Irma ravaged the island, I wrote many posts on Facebook asking what was Government’s Plan for the Post traumatic stress. While being in the field, I could already see the signs among our people while they tried to survive.
So many people have been displaced and are now living in very uncomfortable circumstances which can lead to high levels of stress.
Why didn't government ask the Dutch for extra psychologists to help our local team.
We needed A SOCIAL PSYCHOLOGICAL WELFARE TEAM of psychologists, civil servants, NGOs to go out in the communities to talk to our people in their homes where they are most likely to open up.
Our people are not likely to seek out psychological help.
This team should also include other professionals to assess the person's living condition and could have also been able to determine families needs for food relief as well as temporary roof repairs.
It is not to late and such a team needs to be put in place for the next 18 months.
WAKE UP SXMNERS AND SXM PEOPLE!!!
