The Way Podcast, Episode 15 — Assessing the Accessibility with CHS senior Clara Bond

Clara Bond has always had a passion for making sure those with disabilities aren’t ignored … and it’s now become a large part of her college life, too.

Bond started UK’s undergraduate student club for KARRN, the Kentucky Appalachian Rural Rehabilitation Network, a collaborative team that advocates to empower communities impacted by disability. Their focus is improving the quality of life for all, and the organization is directed under the University of Kentucky College of Health Sciences and led by Professor Patrick Kitzman, Ph.D.

The student club’s purpose is to assess campus buildings for accessibility and suggest changes where needed. They have also provided education to children in various schools across the Fayette County school district.

Now, Clara is looking for others who share this same passion — others who can take over when she graduates. Come with us and learn to assess the accessibility … on this episode of The Way Podcast.
