“Rockland County is home to a vibrant Haitian community and as reports come in of the damage and destruction caused by the earthquake my heart breaks for those who were affected by yet another natural disaster. I have just spoken with leaders in our local Haitian community to pledge my support and the support of Rockland County government in any recovery efforts. I ask all Rockland residents to keep this island and its people in their thoughts and prayers in the coming days and weeks.”
