Why Bright Spots

The Las Vegas you don't see

Everyone knows the lights of the Strip. Fewer people know the lights that stay on a few miles away: the dining room where no one eats alone, the volunteer who remembers your name, the people who show up for neighbors most of us walk past.

Bright Spots tells their stories. Each episode follows one real story, in the words of the people who live it. Everyone we feature is shown with dignity.

I started Bright Spots because I believe the people doing this work deserve to be seen, and so do the people they serve. When you see someone, it gets harder to look away.
