Virginia Currents: Franks Foundation; Stop Child Abuse Now; Thalidomide; VA Dept. of Rehabilitative Services

Polly Franks talks about the Franks Foundation, her fight to protect children from sexual predators and how "comfort kits" help support children on the hardest day of their lives. Plus an interview with Stop Child Abuse Now. We take a look at the 1950's tragedy of birth defects caused by a morning sickness drug, Thalidomide. Also, a look at how people with disabilities want the focus on their abilities not their disabilities during our interview with the VA Dept. of Rehabilitative Services
