Walking Through the HRC Bedrooms
Description
en
Harold Dougall, a former HRC resident, walk through HRC bedrooms during the final site visit. Harold recalls HRC residents being forced to scrub floors with a toothbrush they were made to use after. He explained that HRC residents were sad and lonely, there was nothing to do in the resident's rooms, no television, and sitting all day. Residents remained inside at all times and dorms were separated by female and male genders. Harold explains that the Orillia community wanted HRC residents contained and institutionalized and that the HRC resident's parents did not want the responsibility of caring for children with disabilities.
