Thanks for sharing your thoughts and the resource. I hope you'll drop back in when you start using Photovoice in your work with stepfamilies. What a cool population to use this with! I'm thinking about putting an adolescent group together and using some drama work (to "float up" and explore issues) and then Photovoice as homework to document the awareness and meaning. Thanks for sharing the website as a resource. I'm hoping some of our readers here will be able to share the specifics of how to provide instructions for such a project or give examples of other ways that they have used the work. Hope you'll drop back in often, Dianne. Your voice is needed as we continue to build this new community at <strong><em>Private Practice from the Inside Out</em>! Dianne!

There is currently a project on Vancouver Island using Photovoice to explore housing issues for women fleeing domestic violence. As I understand it, Photovoice is used to give community members a method (photography and storytelling) to have their concerns heard by decisions makers - thus promoting social change. I understand it is a tool to assess community assets and needs through the eyes of its members. My research showed the technique has been used to study health care, immigration, and there is reference to a project in rural China. Suggest anyone interested go to www.photovoice.com This is indeed a powerful video and a very interesting technique - thank you for posting the information.
