Summary
VISTA was placing volunteers with Tribal Councils in villages to develop administrative capacity to handle challenges of modern life.

I have hesitated to post images of people who I never asked permission to share, but decided it’s right. The experience is about the people you meet.

It was a long time ago.  I’m not using full names.  The kids have grown up by now.   Hopefully, they are OK.

I feel obligated to say that images are odd because they tell important truths, but not the whole story.
