Photography instructor Tricia McInroy uses her hands to help teach residents at the Youth Diagnostic and Development Center different ways to compose a photograph. Resident Vanessa Harper (left) is used as a model. Harper says she enjoys the privileges she's earned - including programs like photography - at YDDC but acknowledges, "I wouldn't want to come back" to the center that houses some of New Mexico's most violent teens.
