The Joe Walsh Archive
Assembled here are documents created by the late, great Joe Walsh. Cofounder and Program Director at Direction, Joe sadly passed away in October of 2020. Nevertheless, his legacy at Direction is profound. They are presented in no particular order, nor do we think Joe would want them to be. They represent different fragments and aspects of his ultimate vision of Wholeistic Education, which for him was not just to be a therapeutic model, but a way of life.
