High Spirit Community Farm, based in Great Barrington, MA, is a residential life-sharing community for adults with autism and intellectual disabilities. The event on October 27 will consist of a screening of "Raising Bar," an inspiring 40-minute film about the High Spirit project, followed by a discussion with several of the project's founders. The intention is to spotlight not only the specific efforts being made in Great Barrington, but also to address the wider challenges surrounding long-term care and quality of life for individuals with intellectual disabilities in Massachusetts.
