Folder contains printouts from the documentation work done during summers in the cities listed below. This wonderful program takes teenagers into different areas of their cities to learn who lives there, what is happening there currently, as well as some history of the given neighborhood. Photography is used as a tool to understand and describe the community. The program is active in Washington, DC; Rockville, MD; and New York, NY. For current and past projects in Rockville, see http://www.peerlessrockville.org/programs/
