Thursday Photovoice - Photo 1

This is the first in a series of entries that will highlight photographs taken as part of the photovoice component of Project HYPE.

It’s hard to walk when there are openings on the sidewalk.

Project HYPE is a community-based research project aimed at identifying the social context of hypertension management. The photovoice aspect of the project is designed to have community members photograph those things which positively and negatively affect their hypertension. Participants told the story behind each photo which stimulated dialogue about the issues related to hypertension management.

Check back next Thursday when we will highlight another photograph.


BONUS: I will be attending Case's Collaboration Technology and Engaging the Campus today. I'm looking forward to meeting many of the best and brightest of the Case digital community.
