Lesley,

I can appreciate that =effrey is busy and often hard to reach and naturally I respect his =ime.

It would be greatly appreciated to =rrange a conversation in the next two days as I myself am about to =eave the US for an extended period as part of my work with disaster =elief in Asia, the Mid-East and elsewhere. As an organization, Second =esponse (the initiative of Fortunate Blessings Foundation which I =ounded 16 years ago) is entering a critical time, a major turning point =ade that much more significant as a result of our trauma team now on =he ground in Tacloban, Philippines. The word from there is that our =ork is felt to be extremely valuable by UNICEF, World Vision, WHO, Save =he Children and many other relief agencies. We are hearing this from =thers as well.

Should you or Jeffrey wish to =can through the daily Blog — Second =esponse (with photos) from the Philippines, click on the link. =he Second =esponse <http://www.secondresponse.com/> home page also has a three minute video outlining our =ork. The bigger site, Fortunate Blessings =oundation, has much more history and =ackground.

What is pressing now is =ducation-based funding for training and credible evaluation of our =ethodologies in the field and staff development so that we can reach =ore children. We've retained (and are hoping to hire in the =ext two weeks) a highly qualified PsyD, Michelle Wang, who has been the =rior Program Director at the VA Hospital PTSD Clinic in San =rancisco.

Can you mention all this to Jeffrey =nd let me know if we can have that conversation? For the 17 years we've=known each other (we first met at Stephen Jay Gould's apartment and =hen I consulted at the NYC residence), we have never discussed my =elief work. I think he still sees me as working with people who are =ying while in fact I am focused mostly on disaster =elief.

Now is a time I believe his valuable =upport can truly make a huge difference.

With =hanks,

Bill
