Previous Events

CofC Annual Forum - May 2013

Thank you to all who came to the annual forum this year which explored "The Therapeutic Community as Education."

We were delighted to have Dr Eric Broekart delivering the keynote speech this year on The Therapeutic Community as an educational process in an evidence-based world.  The day also saw a lively debate that argued "Therapeutic Communities can never be truely democratic", and the introduction of a new feature for 60 second ideas to change the TC world.

Copies of the presentation slides and recordings of the key presentations and debate will be available soon.

A summary of the feedback given on the day is available here.

If you would like any information about the previous Community of Communities Annual Forums, please get in touch with the team.
