She is back in the United States now and trying to keep up with the ongoing relief efforts supporting the Haitian community. Please reach out to Jennifer at jnkay@ap.org if you have taken on any projects related to the ongoing Haitian relief efforts, including things such as immigration questions, adoption problems, insurance issues or social services for survivors or families.
