Photographer Mary Chind and Dr. Neil Mandsager will discuss their visit to Uganda with ChildVoice International. The organization works to rehabilitate children traumatized by war, including former child soldiers, children orphaned by war and those left destitute by rebel activity.

Mary Chind has been a staff photographer at The Des Moines Register since 1999. She won a Pulitzer Prize for Breaking News Photography in 2010. Neil Mandsager, is a Des Moines-based obstetrician specializing in high-risk pregnancies. He started the Perinatal Center of Iowa in 1993. The son of a medical missionary, he was born in Cameroon and raised in Marshalltown. He is a board member for ChildVoice International, and brother to the founder and current president of ChildVoice, Conrad Mandsager. The talk accompanies the Mary Chind's photography exhibit, Silent No More: Ugandan Children of War.
