title: Using Photovoice to improve family planning services for immigrant Hispanics.
abstract: In a participatory action research program called Photovoice, Hispanic immigrants in a Midwestern community took photographs to provide researchers with insight regarding family planning. This report describes the Photovoice approach, why the researchers chose it, how they implemented it, what they learned, and the benefits derived for a larger service project.
