One service they provide is craft classes for the adults with handicaps that visit their day care centers.
Irina was at the ceremony to receive a new wheelchair. About six years ago her legs and back started to hurt. She lives alone and with a new wheelchair she will be able to be more independent and keep taking care of herself.
Sister Oaks interviewed this 36 year man--who has been in a wheelchair since about the age of 19.
The adults with handicaps love to make gifts with small beads and sequins. We were presented from the director two hand crafted trees.
They presented to me for my birthday a handmade straw doll from Syvtelana the Chair of the Committee of Labor, Employment, and Social Protection of the Mogilov Region. (How's that for a title?)

It is fun to get a little of the back story of the people you are helping.
That doll is very neat! Do they do something with that first picture...or is it just to look at?
