The Disaster Mortuary Operational Response Team, a division of the National Disaster Medical System, United States Department of Health and Human Services, has established a family Assistance Center in Miami, Florida.

 

Working in cooperation with the United States Department of State, it is our task to insure that any and all Haitian American Citizens ( people with bona fide American Passports) killed in the earthquake in Haiti are returned to the United States, if that the wish of their families.

 

While, given the magnitude of the tragedy, we cannot guarantee the return of loved ones and, pursuant to the mandates of the Haitian Government, we cannot exhume from mass burial sites, the American DMORT teams have been given permission to retrieve remains in other situations and undertake their returns to the United States. Families would then be responsible to contact  the funeral home of  their choice for final arrangements.

 

Time is of the essence, as the center may be closing soon. Families with American Citizens missing or presumed deceased in Haiti are urged to contact the US State Department at : 1-888-407-4747. This is a free call.
