Creating True Home

Home is where we spend so much of our time and it should offer us a place of refuge, a place to recharge, a place to be ourselves, and a launching pad for exploring new valued social roles. Having a true home is so much more than just having four walls and a ceiling. It truly is one of the good things of life, which is what we want and strive for the people we serve. The reality is, though, that for many people in services what they get is not a true home, but a program: a place where other people work.

Join us at the Keystone Institute for the “Creating True Home” workshop where we will explore just how critically important it is in all our lives to have a home, in the truest sense. We will also discuss the dynamics of devaluation that are so pervasive and omnipresent in the lives of the people we serve that get in the way of having a true home. Then we will discuss what to do as response to these forces to help bring about true home, one of the good things of life, to those we serve. Explore this critical sphere of life with us and learn valuable tools, rooted in the tried and true ideas of Social Role Valorization, and make plans to help make the lives better of the people we serve by bringing about a true home.
