Dayton At Work and Play: Carmin Gooden

I have been working to get photos from each of Dayton’s 66 neighborhoods for a show that opens April 2 at K12 Gallery and TEJAS (341 South Jefferson). The last neighborhood on my list was Mount Vernon. There I met Carmen Gooden, co-founder of The Linda Vista, Inc. (1011 Linda Vista Avenue).

Aisha Ford, a junior majoring in film studies at Wright State University, has a life story to tell that she isn’t afraid to share. She’s spoken out for Linda Vista, a program for women and children victimized by abuse that helped her family transition from homelessness, and may turn her story into a documentary.
