January 26 - 29 | Las Vegas, NV 2025 WINTER TRAINING INSTITUTE www.appa-net.org/institutes/2025-Vegas/ SCAN TO REGISTER3 S everal of the excellent articles in this issue of Perspectives are a reminder of the importance of visual communication. What we see with our eyes catches our attention and sticks in our memory. A prime example is laid out in the article by Jonathan Fisher on how the New York City Department of Probation teamed up with a nonprofit organization (Seeing for Ourselves) to offer a NeON photography course to those on probation. The photographs of the NeON project have done so much to open people’s eyes to the lives of individuals participating in community supervision—reaching out in a way that breaks through ingrained misconceptions and over-generalizations about the nature of probation itself and the type of people on probation. They provide a valuable window that underscores the truth of the old saying that a picture is worth a thousand words. APPA was fortunate to have some of the students from the course take photos during our annual training institute in 2023 – they did a fantastic job! Next, consider the article by West Huddleston and Stephen K. Talpins on the need to revisit drug testing methodologies to increase ease of testing and close gaps in access. When it comes to our ability to step back from in-office urine drug testing and increasingly rely on oral fluid drug testing done remotely, the camera plays a crucial role. The individual being tested can document each step in the testing process, from opening the test package to capturing “close-up images of the results of the rapid test at multiple points in time,” enabling a remote observer to verify the validity of the test with a high degree of certainty. The shift to digital cameras and their incorporation into smartphones has made photography amazingly accessible and useful as a tool in our day-to-day lives. And, when it comes to the World Conference, I wish I could have captured in photographs what a stimulating and positive experience that turned out to be. Fortunately, William Burrell and the attendees quoted in his article have done an excellent job of presenting in words the excitement, energy, and sense of collaboration we all experienced. First-hand participation can be the best and most memorable way of learning and growing. In that regard, I urge those working in this field to make every effort to participate in training sessions and conferences, including APPA’s upcoming 2025 Winter Training Institute in Las Vegas, Nevada. The synergy of working with others helps us all advance in our personal and professional lives. Before closing I want to underscore the challenge offered in the “Looking at Probation in a Whole New Way” article to develop a parallel program in your local area--and the helping hand available from the original program staff for doing so. As always, thank you to each of the contributors of these great articles. Of course, I am grateful to those who see the value of this digest and take the time to read and grow!
