CapraCare HuffPostLive Panel

Founder and Executive Director of CapraCare, nonprofit organization serving the residents of Fonfrede, Haiti was a panelist on the HuffPostLive on October 19, 2012. The topic of discussion was the response of medical volunteers following the 2010 Haiti earthquake. Other panelists join in the conversation such as Amy Costello, Dr Henri R. Ford and Dr Ben Nwomeh. The panelists brought their insights based on their expertise and /or experiences they witnessed while responding to the needs of the victims of Haiti earthquake.
