Going Somewhere: People with Mental Handicaps and Their Pastoral Care (New Library of Pastoral Care) Book

This volume is written for workers with any kind of pastoral responsibility whose speciality is other than what is called mental handicap or learning difficulty - those who when exercising a pastoral role usually fall back upon the talking treatment. No wonder they feel de-skilled when confronted by a person with severe learning difficulties, with perhaps little or no speech and without the facility of reasoning. Some have taken up the challenge and others have yet to do so. For both, the authors offer guidance and support. What is it like to have a mental handicap? What prospects are there? What about sexual behaviour? Is marriage a possibility? What can the Churches offer? They declare that people with learning disabilities are going somewhere worthwhile, and invite pastors to share that journey.Read More
