Dear Members of the ISST,

The Executive Board would just like to acknowledge and appreciate the wonderful work of the Resource Committee for Members in Crisis (RCMC).

Under the steady leadership of the RCMC Chair, Magdalena Kitlowska, she and her committee members have made great progress towards supervision and training for ISST Members from Ukraine. These committee members include Daria Rakhubovska, Kristina Zhyvago, and Tena Davies.

We also want to acknowledge the contributions of other ISST members who have volunteered their time and resources to accomplish this important goal:

In alphabetical order: Zaneta Adamczyk, David Bernstein, Marsha Blank, Louise Coates, Tara Cutland-Green, David Edwards, Gill Heath, Daan Jonker, Ilona Krone, Liz Lacy, George Lockwood, Lars Madsen, Karin Pogade, Lynda Perry, Oleg Romanchuk, Robin Spiro, Cilia van Thiel, Katalin Tolvay and Remco van der Wijngaart.  if you think you could help us make a difference for our Ukrainian colleagues- please join us!

This work is very much in line with the intention and mission of this committee:

· Address professional concerns and needs of ISST members affected by overwhelming mass crises, such as war, refugee crisis, and natural disasters
