It serves an area once known as the Queens Bush, which takes in the counties of Grey, Bruce, Huron and parts of Wellington. The formation of this help line was pro- mpted by the knowledge that numerous problems were being faced in the rural communities that somehow were being tolerated but not addressed. A caller who dials 392.6090, can expect several things. The phone will be answered by co-ordinator or a recorder. The messages on ' the recorder are answered -promptly, It is used mainly during the day when the co-ordinator might. -be out on calls. The Mel tall will make contact with a person who takes the information concerning your difficul- ty. If the problem warrants it, the co- ordinator will offer to visit the caller per- sonally, or invite them to the Queens Bush office. No problem is too big or too n1 - The services of the Queens Bush are free. At the same time, contributions from any source are welcomed from the Queens Bush in order to carry on with its service. The Queens Bush is not in competition with already established agencies. It enhances them. Most of the two thou- sand callers over the past two years were not aware of the vast array of social, financial and legal services available to them. The Queens Bush is, an direct you to the appropriate sources you require, often making the in- itial appointment for you. • - Never, ever think your problem is too big or too small! The Queens Bush Rural ininistry has received over two thousand \ calls during the past two years, and rare- ly are the problems the same. There is a source of advice or service for everyone. Don't be surprised if the co-ordinator offers to •put you in touch with a willing volunteer who has experiences much the same as yours. The,giiiding hand extends to many facets of society in our rural areas. if your situation is critical, the co- ordinator will offer, as soon as it is possi- ble, to visit you and tidk face to face about your problem.. Warmth, understan- ding and compassionare another part 01 this service. ' No one need ever know that you have used the services. of the Queens Bush Rural Ministry. Confidentiality' is taken as seriously as' is the true desire to help. Just pick up the phone and call 392-8090, - Yours trek,' • Brian Ireland; Co-ordinator.
