The Westchester School
A-day-in-a-life photographs for The Westchester School, a special education day facility. The school caters to students with autism and handicaps, as well as those who are medically fragile. Located in the former North Salem High School building in Westchester, the nonprofit attracts families from all over the county and NYC. They offer individual educational programming as well as practical training such as students running the cafe inside the school. What was most memorable to me was the attention and care each teacher was giving to the students. Grateful for the opportunity to capture these moments.
This is an ongoing project to document the work of remarkable nonprofits in Westchester that are committed in bringing about change to their communities. The nonprofits are past award recipients of Impact 100, a women's collective giving organization.
