From the book, Hope in the Face of Challenge. Henry Hall inadvertently became the poster child for the project. This photo was taken in 2003. Henry was 56. He worked in an asphalt factory and had too many health disorders to list, but Black Lung Disease was the main culprit. Without insurance, his wife supported the family with part-time jobs while trying to put their daughter through college. The Southeast Kentucky Community Access Program (SKYCAP) helped Henry navigate through the myriad of bureaucratic agencies to get access to health care.
More images from the book are available in Portfolio. Listen to the audio slide show, and read a sample of the book.
