SUMMARY:Ideas That Matter

SUMMARY:The Road Most Traveled: Using the Culturally Valued Analogue as Your Guide
DESCRIPTION:The Road Most Traveled: Using the Culturally Valued Analogue as Your Guide\nJuly 15 2026 @ 9:00 AM – 12:30 PM EDT\nMapping out a vision of a big\, full life for vulnerable people can be full of road bumps. Sometimes we don’t know people very well\, sometimes people are uncertain themselves about their identity\, gifts\, talents and what their future could hold; and sometimes we are so lost in “human service land” that we lose sight of the typical pathways of life and all they have to offer people. But when we are stuck while developing roles\, designing services or even planning a housewarming party for someone\, using the culturally valued analogue (CVA) can provide us some tried and true guidance to get started\, by reminding us to consider “What happens for people with a valued status?” \nJoin us to learn more about using the CVA to keep us moving in the right direction as we walk with vulnerable people. \nRegister

SUMMARY:The History and Implications of America’s Segregated Institutions
DESCRIPTION:The History and Implications of America’s Segregated Institutions\nJuly 30 2026 @ 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM EDT\nMuch can be learned about human effort\, societal forces of oppression and marginalization\, and the possibilities for change by studying the rise and fall of “The Great Institutions.” This presentation will describe the founding of such institutions\, with lofty and earnest aspirations\, through the vast growth of segregation and congregation fed by eugenics ideology\, and the eventual decline of the “total institution.” \nThrough photos\, stories of people’s lives and narrative\, we will explore the connections with today’s services\, the insidious staying power of segregation\, and the lessons we can draw from this. This workshop will be led by Betsy Neuville\, who worked for many years creating community alternatives for hundreds of institutionalized people all over the world and has supported the settlement agreements at numerous facilities which have promised better lives for people. \nRegister
