A Message on the Disaster in Haiti


Queens Library joins the global community in extending sympathy to the people of Haiti, and to our many neighbors here in New York, who have lost so much due to the recent earthquake.

Find information on donating toward emergency relief efforts by contacting the Mayor’s Fund. To find information on mental health resources for those coping with loss; obtaining information on loved ones in Haiti; applying for temporary protection status (TPS) and more, please visit the resources compiled by the Mayor's Office of Immigrant Affairs.
