The Office for Diversity and Inclusion would like to express our concern and support for the people of Turkey and Syria who are experiencing the aftermath of a devastating earthquake. We stand in solidarity with members of the UConn community and their families who have been adversely impacted by this recent tragedy.

Please know that you are not alone, the destruction of life and property is not unobserved, and that your pleas for assistance are not unheard. To the rest of the UConn Community, we encourage you to get involved by learning more about the humanitarian crises facing people in the region, if able, to get involved in relief efforts.
