Exciting, creative, colorful futures planning tool. Jack & Marsha demonstrate 8 steps with an individual and his family. An excellent introduction - linked to the PATH Workbook. A must for anyone using PATH.

PATH was developed by Jack Pearpoint, John O'Brien and Marsha Forest

This video takes the viewer through the steps of PATH. Path was designed to deal with complex issues for individuals, families, and organizations. We have used PATH with medical practitioners, architects, schools, individuals and families. It is a sharp and powerful tool that gets people to doable first steps. There are 8 steps that involve "thinking backwards". Jack & Marsha facilitate the PATH and do instructional commentaries on each step:
  • the North Star, the Dream, the Vision - create a portrait of the future - many generations ahead.
  • Goals - "remember the future" - possible and positive future goals - one or two years "ahead".
  • Now - ground the PATH by "noticing what it is like now.
  • Enrollment - who do we need to enroll if we are really going to get anywhere.
  • Getting Stronger - what do we need to actually do to stay strong enough for the journey .
  • Six Months (from the future - remember backwards what has happened in six months.
  • One Month - remember what has happened - one month from now.
  • First Steps - list immediate beginning steps on this journey - and appoint a coach to keep you on your PATH.
The video describes each step. A young man with cerebral palsy is the focus person in this tape. His speech is difficult and he uses a spelling board to communicate. He plans his transition from an institutional setting, to a life fully in the community. Although the video uses Joe as an example, the process can be easily transferred to any situation.

Audience
A must see for anyone interested in PATH.
