Dreams Never Dreamed with Kalman Samuels
Moderated by Lewis Gertz & Netta Asner-Minster
Join us for a discussion on disability, leadership, and community building with Kalman Samuels, founder and president of the Shalva National Center in Israel, and author of Dreams Never Dreamed, which tells the story 
of how one family responded when disability knocked at their door and the world of hope they have created for thousands of people around the world through the Shalva organization in Israel.
