Jack Yates, a long-term student of Wolfensberger’s work, is giving a number of (stand-alone) half-day workshops on human service history in March and April (each workshop covers the same material).
The focus of the workshops is on the history of human services to children and adults with intellectual impairments, roughly from the 19th century up until today, with a big emphasis on the ‘eugenics’ period.
