AGENTS FOR CHANGE - Clubfoot

"This simple correction for clubfoot is a life changer for kids in India" PBS NewsHour 7/3/2017

Excerpt

SUMMARY:  Clubfoot, a treatable birth defect that can bring pain and social isolation, is often not treated in the developing world.  But a treatment developed a half century ago by a doctor in Iowa is less invasive, less expensive and less painful than the corrective surgery that was once required.  Special correspondent Fred de Sam Lazaro reports on how a charity is trying to bring the cure to children in India.
