title: The function of food in residential treatment.
abstract: This paper describes the behaviour and backgrounds of adolescents in a therapeutic community and proposes that all experiences in the residential context need to form a single integrated psychotherapeutic process. Although reference is made to group and organizational issues, the central consideration is of the significance of food and its treatment potential in this total process.
