to Cape Cod to run - on a volunteer basis - the staffing program for the people providing services to the evacuees who were moved to Camp Edwards. I had been working with my biggest client in Jacksonville FL on the weekend Katrina hit, and four people who were in the program that I was delivering were from the Gulf - 2 from New Orleans, one from Biloxi and one from Pascagoula (sp?) The 2 from NO lost their homes and everything they owned. I knew these folks and it touched me deeply - I had to do something, and since my best skill is in finding people to do jobs, that's what I did.
