This book describes the results and implications of a sustained programme of research into a national policy to improve the quality of life and social standing of people with learning disabilities. It provides a case study of policy implementation from the perspectives of those involved. Research findings and universally applicable approaches are presented in a readable manner for busy practitioners.



The focus is on the ""All Wales Strategy"" - a mould-breaking national policy which has direct relevance to all who are concerned about responsive, person-centred community care. The book draws out principles which have a bearing on multi-disciplinary practice at the levels of individual, service provision and policy formulation.
