Documentary Features New Orleans High School

Seniors at Benjamin Franklin High School in New Orleans are the subject of a documentary, Yearbook 2006 Project, which chronicles the school year after Hurricane Katrina.

Some students were relocated to other cities and new schools, but others were determined to return to New Orleans to complete their studies and attend senior prom and graduation.

The interactive Web site for the project is expected to be launched on the first anniversary of Hurricane Katrina, August 29, 2006. 

More information on the "Spirit of Recovery" conference, including PowerPoint presentations, is available at www.spiritofrecoverysummit.com. For more information on disaster readiness and response, visit SAMHSA's Web site at www.samhsa.gov.
