The Photographs series is primarily composed of albums documenting the Camp Health Aide program. This series also includes 32 mounted photographs taken for the Camp Health Aide Photovoice project by teenage health aides, depicting camp and community life at DuRussel's Potato Farms, Washtenaw County, Mich.

The Videotapes series consists of copies of the two promotional videos produced by MMHIO and producers, Harnack & Company of Mission Viejo, California: Harvest of Hope: The Camp Health Aide Program (1989) and The Camp Health Aide Program; A Personal Perspective (1990). Included in addition are two subseries of unedited footage used in the production of the videos. The first, filmed in Texas, consists of interviews with camp health aides and their families. The videos include interviews about daily life and the importance of the camp health aide program to the individuals involved. There are tours of the migrant's home in Texas and a church service. The second subseries was filmed in Sparta, Michigan and consists of an interview with a doctor at the local migrant community health center, interviews with camp health aides, and shots of the migrant camps showing children playing and workers in the field. After cursory examination, it appears that the two final productions contain parts of both of the subseries of unedited film. The Miscellaneous subseries includes an interview, educational sessions, and the "Models that Work" video, which highlights the Camp Health Aide Program. All are VHS unless otherwise noted.
