It is central to the functioning of the 126 Larche communities around the world that the "core members" live together in community with their assistants.
I have been involved with the Larche communities for 25 years. The intellectually handycapped persons in their homes receive the best care and most love I have seen in any kind of facility.
Removing the provision for support staff to live in a home will have harmful effects on the care for people with intellectual disabilities and will impact the ability of service providers to provide good quality care.
