This week’s guest on Family Life’s “Hometown Heroes” feature is Jenn Boyd of the “Hope Walks” ministry. It works from Pennsylvania, but provides international medical work to help relieve the physical limitations — and, just as important, the social and personal stigma — faced by many children who are born with Club Foot syndrome. Their emphasis is that a treatable condition shouldn’t keep a child from walking.

This ministry has provided treatments for more than 161,000 children in 14 nations.
