Abstract

The revised Learning Circles Program: Breaking the Isolation Cycles is in theory a positive and proactive means by which a group of vulnerable people in the community could break their isolation and dependency on a service agency and or their parents/guardians and pursue an activity or interest that they would want to undertake. The concept of providing people with choice, focussing on their interests, is most appropriate for people with a disability.
