pubmed-article:3481900 | pubmed:abstractText | A socio-political change, which started about 1945, has led to a complex process of change as regards type of services to be offered to mildly mentally retarded persons. Community services of several types are being developed. This change from an institutional to a community life for mildly mentally retarded persons must also deal with the question of the social role of this group. They must be understood as full-worthy citizens for the community life to be a reality. | lld:pubmed |
