Online Chat: Katrina -- One Year Later

From Ascribe Newsfeed:

August 29 will mark the one-year anniversary of Hurricane Katrina's devastating impact on New Orleans and other Gulf Coast communities.

While Katrina "fatigue" has hit many of us, Connect For Kids and other organizations champion the notion that rebuilding the Gulf Coast involves more than fixing levees, homes, and buildings -- it has to include necessities like access to education and health services, particularly to the kids.

We welcome your questions and contributions to a discussion on this important topic that has affected the lives of so many vulnerable children.

Before the date, you can send advance questions and comments for our panelists to martha@connectforkids.org.

Or log on during the chat and submit questions online.
