Hi, Albert,

 

That was on a sister email list run by the Therapeutic Community Open Forum,
or TC-OF (http://www.tc-of.org.uk). I'll add you directly, and then you can
say hello and ask for Gibbs Matthews by name, and search the message archive
on "Aesculap" to see the two messages specifically naming your project (back
on June 13th!). Gibbs changed the thread name. You'll see that there is mine
noting the new theraputic community, and another from the States saying
"There are a couple of such TCs is the US that they may want to touch bases
with (not re-inventing the wheel and such)"

 

I'm not sure if "sister" is the right word, but we interweave and complement
one another, I think. This list is weighted on the side of addictions
therapeutic communities, and TC-OF is weighted on the side of non-addictions
therapeutic communities, but we share many members, and conversations
sometimes spill from one to the other. A but like this.

 

best,

 

Craig

Dear Craig,

 

I have tried to scroll back to find Gibbs Williams' email - without success.
I am probably missing a trick somewhere and would love to hear Gibbs'
thoughts on our venture.

 

Perhaps you have his email address?

 

Best wishes,

 

Albert

Welcome to the list, Albert,

I am not sure if you're aware of this, but we welcomed the advent of your
new
therapeutic community a few weeks ago on the Therapeutic Community Open
Forum
email discussion list, [log in to unmask], with its associated web-site
http://www.tc-of.org.uk <http://www.tc-of.org.uk/> . One of our New York
members, Gibbs Williams, thinking
you were a member of the list, sent a long email of welcome and welcoming
thoughts. If you joined that list I am sure he would send them again, or you
could stroll back through the archives. A number of UK therapeutic
communities
are represented on the list.

You might also wish to get in touch with the Association of Therapeutic
Communities (ATC), at [log in to unmask] The web-site is in
the
midst of radical reform, but the old one remains informative and is
available
at http://www.therapeuticcommunities.org
<http://www.therapeuticcommunities.org/> 

all the best, 

Craig
