In an effort to help employees cope with the effects of IKE and its aftermath, UTMB has opened the Help Center. The Help Center provides job search assistance, job fair information, helpful links, as well as classes to help one deal with a variety of situations that may result from experiencing events such as IKE. The link to the Help Center web page is http://www.utmb.edu/utmbemployeehelpcenter/
UTMB is also collaborating with Catholic Charities to create a fund for families affected by the recent staff reductions and have lost their homes due to IKE. To nominate individuals or make a donation go to http://www.utmb.edu/utmbemployeehelpcenter/EmpRelief/default.htm
