Our thoughts go out to the communities in Libya who have been impacted by the devastating flooding and heavy rains.
A vigil will be held on Monday, September 18 at 7:00 p.m. in front of the Women’s Table on Cross Campus.
While Yale does not currently host any students or scholars who are citizens of Libya, in this time of crisis our hearts are with those in our community of Libyan descent or with ties to the country. Assistance is available through the departments and links in this message.
Yale has resources in place to aid the campus community in times of tragedy like the current one.
- Any student, scholar, or staff in need of support can contact Mental Health and Counseling at Yale Health, where assistance is available around the clock. The telephone number is (203) 432-0290 during business hours and for urgent concerns after hours.
- The Chaplain’s Office (Old Campus, Bingham Hall, Entryway D; (203) 432-1128) is also among the resources available to all members of our community.
- The Office of International Students and Scholars (OISS) is open at 421 Temple St or by phone at (203) 432-2305) to anyone who needs support.
If you have been directly affected by the flooding in Libya and need assistance from the university, please contact Ozan Say, Director of OISS at (203) 432-2305.
