Based on the book by Carmen Bowman and LaVrene Norton. The authors of this household “scrapbook” share their idea for energizing household life.


Learn how household living unlocks independence and fosters interdependence. Home sets the stage for natural engagement: just start something, sing a song, bake a cake, and people come. This is normal. This is home. This is a vibrant daily life.
Households provide the opportunity for people to reclaim their lives and sit again in the driver’s seat. This workshop will provide you the opportunity to learn how to contribute to this good daily life for the people in your care.


Not in households yet? The spirit and methodology will inspire you, whether in neighborhoods or even a traditional setting.  Learn to focus on transforming the institution into a homey and vibrant place where residents can experience daily life as they’ve always known it.
