Hiya Kath. I am well familiar with the therapeutic community model and am a DAYTOP graduate. DAYTOP, in my experience, is a program that very much stresses the need for personal accountability and is HIGHLY confrontational to that end. Have you read [i:3468591e10]Community and Growth[/i:3468591e10] by Vanier? L'Arche came out of that (therapeutic community) concept, and some wonderful principles for community life are in that book. Thanks for your time. I am fine, really.

If you read what I quoted you'll see that it contrasted what in the UK is meant by a therapeutic community, and says that what in the US is called one, is not the same thing at all.
