Back Where We Belong
|
Ladislav Lamza, 53, is the director of the ‘Center for Providing Service in the Community - I am just like you’. Ladislav started as social worker 29 years ago. He was racked with guilt: “I worked for 29 years. I never saw anyone rehabilitated… It [the institution] is a place to confine people. We feed them, keep them, and nobody gets well.” He decided he must make a change, transitioning from a medical model to an inclusive model. People began to heal. Institutions make you believe you are worth less. Without names, without respect.”
