LightHouse as Community Health Infrastructure: A Health Promotion Blueprint for Belonging, Blind-Positive Culture and Blind-Led Community Resilience

Image description: A black background with a white lighthouse on the left. The right side displays a word cloud in tan and gold text featuring “ACCESS,” “CONSENT,” “DIGNITY,” and “INCLUSION” as the largest words, surrounded by related terms including public health, disability justice, community, pleasure, advocacy, boundaries, and wellbeing.
