• Magnus Stenbock Hotel: "The Magnus Stenbock Hotel is a consumer-run program located in Helsingborg, Sweden. Mr. Maths Jesperson, a highly respected consumer advocate in Europe, and a founding member of the hotel, believes that sheltered living accommodations should be neither for rehabilitation nor a part of conventional psychiatric services. Rather, sheltered living should provide a safe environment that a person can consider home. Jesperson believes that an individual living in a sheltered environment may require personal support from time to time, but prefers that such support be a more flexible form of rehabilitation and treatment" · Publications: Web site www.mentalhealth.org/publications/allpubs/KEN-01-0108/hotel.asp, articles in books (for example in "Flucht in die Wirklichkeit - Das Berliner Weglaufhaus") · Contact Information: Magnus Stenbock Hotel, S-25223 HELSINGBORG, Tel. +46 42 123036, Fax +46 42 184 0490
