title: Therapeutic community: a Canadian update.
abstract: Therapeutic Community is forty years old. This paper describes its origins and reviews the more important contributions in the English speaking literature of the last decade. There have been few contributions from Canadians in spite of an upsurge of interest in Group Psychotherapy in the last few years. Some experiences in Toronto are reported.
