I met Jean at the Global Health Conference in May '07 when I went there to speak. Jean was on a panel discussion. We met in the lobby of the Conference hotel and had a good talk about TeenAIDS' mission. He is very interested in helping reach teens in Rwanda where he is finishing his medical studies. He was sponsored to the Conference by USAID. We both knew John Dunlop the Rwandan Director. We had a good laugh when we realized that his mentor/sponsor ("Mr. Dunlop") was the son of my babysitter when I was a mere babe and young child! Judy Dunlop has been a friend ever since and gave me support at the time of my mother's passing last November. Judy spoke eloquently about Barbara at her memorial service. We look forward to working with Jean helping Rwanda and central Africa's teens.
