Healing Helpers

For many years, the days before and after September 11th would bring a halt to Robert Ekblaw’s life. He would be unable to function.

That all changed this year. And, it happened because of what he is creating in the world.

Robert is a Team 2 Quarter 2 participant in Landmark Education’s Team Management and Leadership Program.
