[FoCHAT] NY Times Reporter Wants Info From RHP Applicants

[Melanie Ehrlich]

Dear FoCHAT
   
  Sorry, if this is a duplicate of a message that you may have received on a chatgroup, but I wanted to make sure that all FoCHAT members got this.
   
  I am sending this for Leslie Eaton, a NY Times reporter at her request. She reports regularly on NO and comes down here periodically to access our recovery. She wrote an article about RHP money beginning to flow, which was published in the Times a while ago, and is concerned about follow-up.  It is the NY Times that has had an online link to "Hurricane Katrina" every day since the hurricane and very many articles about NO, when one follows that link.

  My name is Leslie Eaton, and I'm a reporter at the New York Times who 
writes frequently about Louisiana. I'm working on an article about the 
"Road Home" program, and would love to talk to anyone who has had 
experience with the program. I'm especially interested in people who have 
been told they will receive awards -- do you think the amount was 
calculated correctly? will it be enough for your needs? I'd also be 
interested in comments about the application process and the pace of the 
program. My email is eaton at nytimes.com; my telephone number is 212-556-1603.
Depending on your schedule and mine, perhaps we can meet in person when i am in New Orleans and Baton Rouge.
Thanks for your consideration -- I hope to hear from you!
