Jocelyn Frank is the founder and creative director of Voices of Health (VOH). The public health education and audio documentary project received backing from the DC Commission on the Arts and Humanities and National Endowment for the Humanities to engage HIV positive residents from across the nation's capital to share and record personal "stories of diagnosis."
VOH reaches listeners through public listening installations and through the development and distribution of the VOH touchscreen app. In 2016, Voices of Health was honored to be accepted into the area's "Washingtonia Collection," an art collection managed by the DC Commission on the Arts and Humanities available for exhibit to DC government offices, agencies and in public spaces.
VOH aims to diminish stigma across all-ages and reduce the sense of isolation that can come with a change in health status.
Voices of Health is an on-going success thanks to vibrant DC partnerships with the Carnegie Library in Washington DC in connection with the international AIDS2012, the annual Black Pride Picnic, DC Public Libraries, SMYAL, Whitman-Walker Health and Unity Health (special thanks for three very dynamic longterm installations in Unity's public high school clinics' exam rooms in Wards 7 and 8 in 2013-2014).
