| | "Love through the eyes of Baltimore youth: A photovoice exhibit"
When asked what theme they would like to focus on for a Photovoice project, the youth said LOVE! Tired of being identified with the problems facing their communities, the youth were given cameras to take pictures of the love they see around them. The youth worked for a year in collaboration with Andre Chung, photojournalist for the Baltimore Sun, Roberta Downing, a W.K. Kellogg Community Health Scholar at JHSPH, and Nedra Ross and Layne Humphrey of the Center for Adolescent Health. This is the culmination of their work.
