Desde el Consejo General del Trabajo Social queremos trasladar nuestras sinceras condolencias y afectos a todas las personas y familias afectadas, lamentamos profundamente el dolor y la pérdida. Porque, además, en España lamentablemente conocemos de primera mano los efectos de este tipo de catástrofes tras el reciente y devastador paso de la DANA por numerosos municipios de Valencia, Málaga, Albacete y Cuenca.

La solidaridad de las trabajadoras sociales españolas es más fuerte que nunca, y nos ponemos a disposición de la Asociación Nacional de Trabajadores Sociales en la región de California (National Association of Social Workers, California Chapter) para ofrecer los conocimientos y la experiencia del Consejo General del Trabajo Social organizado y sistematizado a través del GEIES (Grupo Estatal de Intervención en Emergencias Sociales) para colaborar en la reconstrucción de las vidas de las personas y familias, acompañando a las colegas trabajadoras sociales norteamericanas que así lo requieran.
