le at home
BY: SHARON DIETZ
The director of Huron
County's. Family and Chil-
dren's services told Huron-
County Council in his annual
report that programs clever-
oped by the agency in recent
years., reflect the priorities
the MiniStry of Community
and Social Services is advo-
cating in 1981. •
John Penn told Huron
tounty Council at their Nov-
ember 27 meeting that, two
programs • already esta-
hliglred by the agency are in
line with the ministry:Ao ob-
jectiveS this year.
When the Children's Aid
society of Huron County
changed its name to Family
and Children's Services in
1977, the. Board of Directors
signalled to the community
that its.: objective was to
develop family treatment
services .in the home which
were aimed at preventing
family breakdown. Since
1977, said Mr. Penn, the'
agency -has introduced a
significant number of -"pre-
vention programs aimed at
supporting families so that
children may remain in their
own home rather than come
into foster care.
This family focused
approach to child protective
services has been streng-
thened this year by the
funding of three new pro-
grams. They include a parent
aide program aimed at the
training and support of par
ents and the employment of a
volunteer co-ordinator to re-
, cruit, and train voluteers to
launch a program which
supports the work of the
family service caseworkers.
The third program is the
ongoing training of profess-
ional staff in marriage and
family therapy: to ensure that
the agency has the skills
necessary to carry out the
objectives of family based
services.
A second major policy
decision of the Board of
Directors was to: develop ,
specialized foster family care
for children who, for a
variety of reasons, are diffi-
cult to place in regular foster
homes, reported Mr., Penn.
Many of .these very upset
children were .once placed in
institutions outside of
Huron at an average cost
ranging from - $16,000 to
$20,000 per year. The further
development of specialized
foster homes in Huron
County has resulted in con-
siderable savings in 19801
remarked Penn.
At the beginning of the
year the agency had five
children in paid institutions.
Today the agency has only
one child in such a placement
yet, the agency still receives
funding for all the children
who require this type of
program. This money can
then be channelled into other
programs because it is not
being used to keep the
children in the more costly
institutional programs.
During the past year, the
agency has appointed a
foster family worker who has
responsibility for recruitidg,
training and supporting-the
specialized foster families.
Mr. Penn also pointed out
that the past year has been
crucial for the funding of
children's aid societies..• In
the past, „child; w,elfare agen,-.,
cies were, allowed to incur
budget deficits and received
supplemental funding at
year's end - much to the,
concern and frustration of
the municipalities. This is
the transitional year from
line by line budget of 1979 to
the service plan approach of
1981. •
This year's budget moved
to a global approach, said
Mr. Penn, allowing very little
freedom to over-spend; but
considerable discretion in
spending and it shifts re-
sponsihility for fi nancial
management and decision
making to the local level.,
On Wednesday night the
Bantams and Midgets Were
