”Toward a Vision of Recovery...makes the most important contribution in the area of rehabilitation for people with mental illness that I have seen in years. It constitutes a statement that there is 'hope' and that people with mental illness can achieve in our community if we just expect that they can do so.”—Elmer C. Bartels, Commissioner, Massachusetts Rehabilitation Commission

”How inspiring... the whole Archway community is viewing it in small groups and discussing the possibilities it opens for the field. Great job!”—Lou Van Hollen, Archway Station, Inc., Cumberland, Maryland
