a few thoughts from Penny Low Deiner who
specializes in educating children with special
needs. I think if, in this case, we substitute
the word "people" for "children" we'll be on
track:
"Inclusion represents an ideal: that all
children with disabilities will have their
differences acknowledged and, where possible,
will be educated to be equal participants in
society. This objective means that children with
diverse abilities should be provided with care
and education in neighborhood settings, that
their lives should be as normal as possible, and
that intervention should not interfere with
individual freedom."
"the essence of the model remains: Children with
disabilities will be placed in increasingly
integrated environments until there is just one
level of service."
my best,
