Thoughts, tools, stories to help build a future where friendship and community are the norm. A thoughtful collection of essays and reflections by John and Connie Lyle O'Brien which offers a perspective on disability, community and service practice and policy. This is a book relevant for all of us who want to build friendships and community, not only for people with developmental disabilities, but for ourselves. ‘Members of each other’ exposes the dangers of power, isolation, helplessness, and gives tried and trusted tools to help build for the future. This collection describes initiatives in three areas, in particular: linking people one-to-one (citizen advocacy) ● gathering people around helping a person define and pursue a desirable future (circle of support) ● assisting people to pursue their interests as members of community associations (connecting people to community associations).
