Photovoice Training for Bourbon County Health Department

Grants and Contracts Details

Description

ABSTRACT The Bourbon County Health Department was awarded a grant to conduct an environmental scan with youth to capture retailers’ tobacco marketing and displays. Part of the grant requires the health department to conduct follow-up activities such as Photovoice to help tell the story of Bourbon County youth’s experience with tobacco products and marketing practices. The PI was invited by the health department to prepare and deliver a two-part training, with the ?rst session involving an orientation to Photovoice and the goal of the project (learning about youth experiences with tobacco products and marketing practices to inform an environmental scan) and a topic generation exercise. Between sessions, youth would send the PI’s students photos and initial captions. Then, at the ?nal session, youth would “show and tell” their photos and ?nalize their captions based on group discussion of the photos. After going through an initial facilitated experience, the youth team would repeat photo-taking and discussion to collect more data as needed.
