This project strove to understand and help The Child Medical Connection (CMC), a non-profit organization founded and directed by Mr. Joseph Bodanza in Leominster, Massachusetts. The CMC brings handicapped children from Vietnam for treatment at the Shriner's Hospital in Springfield, MA. The project team translated documents and conversations for the CMC, accompanied patients to and from the hospital, and investigated alternative technologies and organizations that might carry on the CMC's work, and finally publicized the CMC in the Vietnamese community of Worcester, MA.
