Richman
Richman
Both of Richman’s parents are deaf, mute, and mentally challenged. Since they were unable to care for him and his siblings, Atto and Ququah, they stayed with a grandmother or other distant relatives who were unable to care for them for extended periods of time. The brothers, Richman and Atto, came to Rafiki in May 2002. Their sister, Ququah, joined them later in September 2003.
