Based on an extensive Canadian survey of support services for adults with developmental disabilities, and 141 interviews with such adults, their families, and support staff, this book discusses the empowerment through community which developmentally disabled people can experience in today's post-deinstitutionalized society. The Canadian origins of the work do not prevent it from being relevant to professionals working with these populations in the United States and elsewhere.
