And Thou Shalt Honor: The Green House Project

Streaming video - 2015

The Green House Projects are modeled on the vision of Dr. Bill Thomas to build more humane living centers for frail elders. The centers seek to create an atmosphere where both staff and residents are treated with respect and dignity. This 25-minute video, funded by a grant from the Hulda B. and Maurice L. Rothschild Foundation, documents the creation of the first Green House Projects in Tupelo, Mississippi. The groundbreaking PBS special And Thou Shalt Honor series brings to light the challenges facing today's caregivers. The struggles and rewards of caregiving are given equal treatment in this incisive and thoughtful series. Sensitively hosted by Joe Mantegna, the purpose of the program is to promote awareness of the issue, promote ...awareness of the needs of caregivers and promote discussion of the importance of the issue before it becomes a national crisis. The pro­gram is meant to be a lightening rod to rally support, raise awareness, and energise a movement to change the fate of caregivers in this country.
