Hell-Bent on Helping: Benevolence, Friendship, and the Politics of Help
The public Broadreach republication of this 1994 chapter was read on 20 September 2026. It is catalogued so a 1994 Van der Klift publication is not silently equated with a 1994 ECPM training manual. The chapter does not name ECPM, CSIL, BC Rehab, Greater Vancouver Home Support Society, or Vancouver Health Department.

Annotation
The chapter is about help, friendship, and inclusive education. It argues that excessive help can be disempowering. That is a disability-rights argument from the same year a 1994 ECPM training revision has been hypothesized. It is not bibliographic evidence that Van der Klift wrote or revised an ECPM skill-development manual, and it names none of the organizations attached to the 1990 Roeher ECPM citation.
A public-web search in this pass for Van der Klift + ECPM / “Enhanced Consumer Participation Model” / “home support” / “BC Rehab” / “Greater Vancouver Home Support” did not recover a second 1994 title. LinkedIn and Broadreach biographical pages describe later training and mediation work; they do not list an ECPM manual.
source_type is secondary relative to CSIL institutional history: a 1994 advocacy/education chapter, not a home-support program instrument.
Open questions
- Whether Van der Klift has any unpublished or unindexed role in ECPM materials.
- Whether a 1994 ECPM training manual exists as a distinct document from this chapter and from the 1990 Roeher-cited manual.
