Description
When community members identified wheelchair access as a priority, Peace Corps Moldova Volunteer Adam and his counterpart Victor launched the “Access for All” project to turn that need into a reality.
Residents raised their share of the cost. The mayor contributed materials. A disability rights organization assessed public buildings, and a local contractor stretched the budget far enough to build an extra ramp in a neighboring village. 🤝🏼
But the work wasn’t done yet. Participants were invited to navigate the village with limited mobility and test the new ramps firsthand. The experience gave young people a clearer understanding of the barriers their neighbors face.
