Life Sharing with People with Cognitive Disabilities in Camphill Village Communities

Faculty Sponsor: Deborah Cohen

Zoe studied two Camphill Communities in Great Britain, voluntary intentional communities where people with and without cognitive disabilities share their lives. She compiled an archived database and wrote a paper tracing Camphill’s methodology during a time of changing attitudes toward disability.

Zoe's Royce work resulted in a published book, "In the Nearness of Our Striving: Camphill Communities Re-Imagining Disability and Society." Zoe completed her J.D. at Harvard University Law School in 2015 and was the recipient of the 2012 Chayes International Public Service Fellowship allowing her to work with the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia, the Netherlands. She is currently the Ford Fellow, Disability Rights Program at ACLU.
