The beauty of Albinism
Did you check out my weblinks and see this one for Positive Exposure? Check out Positive Exposure. It's a site from a photographer who has taken beautiful pictures of people with Albinism.
Save this site to your favorites if you have a child with Albinism; particularly if they struggle with the negative experiences kids with Albinism can encounter. I love these portraits!! I think the artist does a great job of capturing the beauty of Albinism.
A little bit about Positive Exposure (from their site):
Positive Exposure, founded in 1997 by former fashion photographer Rick Guidotti, challenges the stigma associated with difference by celebrating the beauty of human diversity.
Positive Exposure also supports the Tanzania Project & Under the Same Sun. Take a moment and check both sites out.
Here's the site information:
Positive Exposure: http://www.positiveexposure.org/home.html
Check out Under the Same Sun: www.underthesamesun.com
The last site is NOAH.
They are a great resource for information, family events and support.
Their site is www.albinism.org
Do it at home: Get involved with a support/family/child website that is for your child's vision impairment. Check out what's available in your area. Many groups for specific vision conditions have regional or local chapters. The more you know, the less alone you are!
