Sinopsis

Community Integration Models explores how communities can intentionally foster inclusion and empower individuals with disabilities. The book delves into policies and local planning, examining concepts like deinstitutionalization and universal design. It highlights the importance of participatory governance in creating environments where people with disabilities are valued contributors, moving beyond mere physical presence to ensure equitable access to opportunities. The book emphasizes that disability is often a result of societal barriers, advocating for systemic changes.

 
This book provides a comprehensive context by examining the historical trajectory of disability services, from segregated institutions to the current push for community-based support. The ADA and CRPD are analyzed for their effectiveness in promoting integration. Drawing from case studies and empirical research, the book progresses logically by defining key concepts, delving into specific models of community integration, and proposing a framework for developing more inclusive communities.

 
Community Integration Models adopts an accessible tone, making it suitable for policymakers, urban planners, social workers, disability advocates, researchers, and students. It promotes a balanced analysis of different perspectives and acknowledges the complexities of implementing inclusive policies, offering practical guidance for promoting inclusion and dismantling barriers.

    Years after her successful and impactful career at the CIA, Christina Hillsberg became enthralled with the stories of the trailblazing women who forged new paths within the Agency long before she began her career there in the aughts. These were women who sacrificed their personal lives, risked their safety, defied expectations, and boldly navigated the male-dominated spy organization. 
     
     
     
    Through exclusive interviews with current and former female CIA officers, many of whom have never spoken publicly, Agents of Change tells an enthralling and, at times, disturbing story set against the backdrop of the evolving women's movement. It was the 1960s, a "secretarial" era, when women first gained a foothold and pushed against the one-dimensional, pop-culture trope of the sexy Cold War Bond Girl. Underestimated but undaunted, they fought their way, decade-by-decade, through adversity to the top of the spy game. 
     
     
     
    Seamlessly weaving together the individual stories of these exceptional women, Hillsberg deftly tackles not just the fight for gender equality at the CIA, but the current dilemma the Agency faces when dealing with the culmination of a decades-long culture of sexual harassment and assault.

    A lack of understanding about Asperger's Syndrome often leads to significant challenges for those affected. Individuals with Asperger's typically struggle with social comprehension and reciprocal communication. If others recognize and acknowledge these difficulties, it can help prevent the onset of clinical depression for those with Asperger's. People with this syndrome often have a deep interest in specific fields and perceive culture, people, and the world around them in a unique way. 
    When meeting someone new, we quickly form judgments based on their appearance, including their clothing, facial expressions, body language, voice, and tone. These impressions shape our responses. However, those with Asperger's may find it challenging to pick up on subtle social cues, which complicates their interactions and can lead to confusion, stress, and depression. 
    Children with Asperger's require additional support and care, while adults with the syndrome benefit from job opportunities that match their skills and abilities. These individuals have much to offer when given the right opportunities. 
    Recent years have seen significant progress in our understanding of Asperger's Syndrome, but it is crucial to share this knowledge to shift perspectives and help those affected manage their challenges. Individuals with Asperger's often excel in noticing minute details, a trait that can be either a strength or a weakness. They may not conform to societal norms but possess a strong drive for truth, knowledge, and excellence.

    Pure obsessional obsessive-compulsive disorder, or "Pure O" OCD, is a subtype of OCD that is characterized by intrusive thoughts, images, or urges without any visible symptoms. These "hidden compulsions" can include constant reassurance seeking, obsessive regret or worry, and may involve avoidance, excessive preparation, and thought rituals. They can also cloud your judgement, causing you to make decisions based on fears and compulsions instead of your values. So, how do you break this obsessive cycle? 
     
     
     
    Grounded in acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and written by a renowned ACT and anxiety expert, "Pure O" OCD explains the cognitive fusion underlying your obsessive thoughts, and how it can lead to social anxiety, not feeling good enough, panics and phobias, and even other disorders—which then reinforce the fusion in an unhelpful, positive feedback loop. Using the five skills in this book—labeling, letting go, mindfulness, purpose, and acceptance—you'll learn how to finally break free of the struggle, worrying, and avoidance that keep you stuck. 
     
     
     
    With practice, you'll find that you can counter your anxiety and obsessive thoughts with your own, values-based narrative, and learn how to better accept your thoughts and feelings, so that you can proceed freely and purposefully toward a life that reflects what matters most to you.
