I’m writing with a brief update about our response to the emergency in Beirut, Lebanon.  The situation remains heartbreaking with hundreds of thousands homeless, three hospitals destroyed, and with the loss of the port, we are witnessing dwindling supplies of drugs, and increasing food insecurity.
 
Within three days after the explosions, we set up an emergency reception at the community mental health center of Rafic Hariri hospital and began offering psychological support to those in need. Additionally, a mobile clinic managed with our Lebanese partner is providing psychological support and medical and paramedical services in the most severely affected areas.
