To Contribute to this Site
Wikis are notoriously open to spam. This has certainly been the case recently here. If you wish to post an article, or add to one of the information services (let's say you know about a therapeutic community somewhere in the world which is not yet listed on "TCs Worldwide", and you wish to add it to the list), please email the moderators to open an account for you. You will then be able to edit and contribute as you wish. When you email, please let us know something about yourself and why you want to open the account, so that we know you really are human, and really do care about communicating with others who care about therapeutic environments. Thankyou! email the moderators.

A word from Maxwell Jones - Therapeutic Community Pioneer
I have been bashed a bit but frankly I'm thrilled.
I think this demonstrated a great deal to me...
It is the best attempt I have ever had in my 77 years...to try to share information....
When you open up this box, you don't get anywhere for a long time.
Learning is a painful process and I think that is the message to carry away with you.
If you are hurting, good. Something is happening to shake your complacency, and initiate a process of growth.
- Maxwell Jones 1984 (From "A Life Well Lived" Maxwell Jones - A Memoir - Dennie Briggs 2002)

A community is like a ship: everyone ought to be prepared to take the helm.

Please, grant me the serenity to accept the pages I cannot edit,
The courage to edit the pages I can,
And the wisdom to know the difference
