Abstract:

The residents who live at the Chamberlain House in Raleigh are the subject of a photojournal by Laurel Falls. The residents range from their mid-teens to early twenties and some are fleeing abusive families, drugs, and alcohol. Falls received a grant from the Center for Documentary Studies at Duke University to study this subculture. The stories of several residents are shared through captions attached to their pictures.
