A Place to Call Home: talking about devolution records the journeys of some of the residents, families and staff of Greystanes Children’s Home, a large residential facility that devolved into a range of community based services. Other parents whose adult children still reside in institutions also share their hopes and fears of a future life in the community; and Jan Daisley, a leading advocate for people with disabilities, provides a personal insight into institutional care and her quest to find her own "place to call home".
