And truly that is, you know, just a lack of education that we're able to provide to the citizens within Puerto Rico.
Imagine facing a natural disaster that not only destroys homes but also leaves deep emotional scars. That's the reality for many in Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria. In this episode of 'Mental Insights', host Brendan Cutuli shares his thoughts on the ongoing mental health crisis in Puerto Rico, nearly two years after the hurricane struck. While the physical devastation was immense, the emotional toll has been equally severe, if not more so.
Brendan discusses the limited mental health resources available to Puerto Ricans and how this lack of support exacerbates their struggles. He highlights the importance of emotional recovery in disaster relief efforts, stressing that rebuilding homes is just one part of the equation. The episode sheds light on the urgent need for better mental health support and education to help communities recover emotionally from such traumatic events.
If you're interested in understanding the full scope of disaster recovery, this episode offers valuable insights into the often-overlooked aspect of emotional well-being.
