My theory for the history
Thank you - now you need to put these posts into a book, Cori! Fascinating. The only other model of community care that I know of is Shared Lives Plus in the UK. Alex Fox built this organization (he's moved on now) but you should read his excellent Escaping the Invisible Asylum https://www.amazon.ca/New-Health-Care-System-Invisible/dp/1447341678/ref=sr_1_1?crid=D8MRMM0NSHF7&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.WH3CJgEKJVIgNhmeAafoqZ6e3LgLlcpy_1520uSbZ6g.rzjq1e1ssdKh7kave3AD7b5_6KGrUUVWX-lbyxZk70I&dib_tag=se&keywords=asylum+alex+fox&qid=1725286130&sprefix=asylum+alex+fox%2Caps%2C92&sr=8-1. And this is the homeshare web page for Shared Lives Plus https://homeshareuk.org/. This is as close to the Geel ideal that I've seen.
Thanks, Donna! I'll have to check these out :)
If you would like an introduction to Alex Fox, just let me know :)
