If my local TPC started using a photo of me in their social media recruiting posts without my permission, I would first reach out to them to express my concerns. I believe it’s important to have a conversation to clarify how my image is being used and to ensure that I am comfortable with it. If they obtained consent, I would want to know more about their intentions and how they think it represents the organization. Ultimately, I would want to make sure that it aligns with my values and that I’m portrayed in a positive light. If I felt uncomfortable with it even after discussing, I would request that they remove the photo. On the other hand, if it was a positive representation and I felt good about it, I might consider allowing them to keep it, perhaps even feeling proud to be associated with their community efforts!
