SEIU member Gina Etiene (on right) consoles Marie St. Louis at the Haitian Crisis Referral and Support Center set up at the SEIU Local 1199 offices in Boston, MA on January 14, 2010. SEIU provided free phones to people trying to call relatives in Haiti. St. Louis has been trying to reach her family since the earthquake.
