"Camphill Communities California is beautiful in many ways...
no one is treated as disabled; everyone is given the right,
at their own pace, in their own ways, to contribute to a very
unique community that genuinely values all of its members.
Since his arrival, our son Frans is developing himself fully in
ways we never suspected he could in our wildest dreams.
Merci!"

~ Dominique van Hooff, mother of Frans van Hooff,
a resident-member of Camphill California.
