Abstract

The Hard Times Cafe is a mutual help-oriented organization for individuals who have low incomes and/or physical and mental disabilities. This article describes the overall approach of the Hard Times Cafe, focusing in particular on its Family Opportunity Project (FOP). The FOP shows how emotional and economic self-help approaches can be successfully integrated.
