AP22 Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Hi, my name is Andrew, and I've been wanting to take respite for 1 to 3 weeks, maybe more, at a calm and diverse place. I've found no exact place, but Will Hall suggested asking peer community for their related sensitivity, even if it wasn't about drugs. The Family Care Foundation closed, but like them I'm looking for people with capacity to sanctuary others in crisis. Since state and private crisis respites in the US are limited by prior-residence, financial, rigid-schedule, or invasive-intake barriers, Might anyone with care and capacity be open to informally allow semi-self-contained people like me to stay with them? And/Or ask understanding family/companions if they can offer a quiet, dark room and compassionate, uninvasive environment? Thanks for taking the time to read my message, Andrew Link to comment
