Dr. Eydie Kendall, an Assistant Professor at PSU in the Doctor of Physical Therapy Program, presented a program on Uryadi's Village in Ethiopia which serves children with disabilities. In addition, the village has a permaculture program aimed at making the orphanage self-sustaining. To hear her entire presentation, please go to our Facebook Page.
