A Word from the President

Dennis W. Felty
Dennis W. Felty, President, KHS

It is with deep sadness that we mourn the tragic passing of Robyn Foose, who we supported. She was a part of our Keystone family for many years, receiving services in the community. At the time of her death, Robyn was being treated at the Lehigh Valley Burn Center.

We remember her and we honor her as a charming, affectionate woman with a wonderful sense of humor. We join her family and friends in mourning her loss in this tragic accident. She will be missed by many.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to her family and friends.

Dennis

The Role of Disability Issues in Global Health Policy

According to the World Health Organization (2009), approximately 650 million people currently live with a disability – about 1 percent of the world's population – and of these, 200 million are children. By these estimates, having a disability places a person in the world's largest minority group, a minority group that anyone can join at any point.

Reduce your office clutter and turn your trash into treasure by participating in Cartridges 4 Canines, a fundraising initiative to benefit Susquehanna Service Dogs. The Keystone Partnership is partnering with Higher Information Group to launch this used ink and toner cartridge drive, which channels environmental awareness to generate financial support for the significant services provided by Susquehanna Service Dogs. Individuals and companies in Central Pennsylvania can arrange for regular collection of their used inkjet and toner cartridges by Higher Information Group or other Keystone volunteers, and all proceeds from the recycled cartridges will go toward the breeding, training and placement of service, hearing and therapy dogs for children and adults with disabilities.
