The mission of GHLS includes facilitating opportunities for other Wyoming communities to move towards alternatives in elder living using the Green House model. Riverton, Jackson Hole, Lovell, Gillette, Casper, Unita County, and Gillette sent representatives to  Sheridan for the September 23 workshop to help advance the effort in thier own communities.  Dr. Bill Thomas, creator of the Green House concept and the Eden Alternative spoke to a group of 22 encouraging them to take next steps. Following Dr. Thomas’ workshop, Melissa Honig, Guide from NCB, Capital Impact, Inc., the non-profit consulting organization dedicated to the Green House concept, provided a two hour workshop for interested communitiies. At a brief meeting following the two day workshop, the groups exchanged contact information and will meet by phone conference call hosted by Melissa Honig to help one another with the process. The Sheridan project is very appreciative of Melissa and her generous support. If you are interested in bringing a Green House to your community, contact Kay Wallick, Program Coordinator, Sheridan 307-674-1607.
