Journel Entry

DOROTHEA DIX

Dear journal,
today is my first day in Europe and i'm really liking it here. especially how they treat the prisoner's and mentally ill. they are kept separately and are kept in safe, secure,clean, non-abusive environments. one of the places i went to was called Wayside Manor a place where mentally ill live and are cared for until they were ready to live on their own, it is quite remarkable and i'm hoping i can work towards getting places like this in the United States, thats just what people need! I think the first place i'll start will e in Massachusetts, then i'll move from state to state. Oh i can't wait to get back home and get started.
