I worked at Meadow House, a day treatment program in Ithaca, NY from 1975-1979. The mission of the agency was to reintroduce people to the community who had been institutionalized for years. My friend Emil Ghinger, a portrait photographer, took pictures of some of the clients in 1976. This is a sample of some of the work that Mr. Ghinger produced. I am very pleased to share them.
These are great pictures! It makes me sad thinking about all the wasted years people spent locked up. Thanks for showing them.
