In a place not far from me, Where I often go, Lies one I loved so dearly, Who left one year ago. His resting place I visit, Put flowers there with care, But no one knows the heartache, As I turn and leave him there.

Y t ad ail 9 FASHIONS 43 Albert St: 482-7872 Clinton SWAN seeks to end woman abuse in Huron BY ARLENE TIMMINS SWAN (Stop Woman Abuse Now) is a coordinating committee of over 30 interested organizations and individuals committed to work- ing cooperatively to reduce, prevent and eliminate all forms of woman abuse in Huron County and beyond. The group formed in October, I990 and since then has met on the firsi Friday of every month. These meet- ings are open to anyone who wishes to attend and who agrees with the goals and service principles guiding the organization. Some of these goals and guiding principles are: • the safety of women and children is the fundamental priority in any intervention to eliminate abuse. • service delivery must extend beyond traditional forms of inter- vention to include advocacy and political change. • all members of SWAN commit to work in a manner which is collaborative and coordinated with other service. • women's choices and expertise related to their own situations must be respected. At the same time, service workers have the responsi- bility to (a) create conditions where a woman is given an oppor- tunity to make informed choices and (b) create reasonably bound- aries and safety tlrovisions, • services must recognize abuse as criminal activity and promote the application of the full measures of the law against the perpetrator. SWAN's primary goalsare related to training, public education and lobbying to ensure that institu- tions at all Levels are sensitive to the needs of women and children who have experienced abuse. To that end, the group has been involved in many activities. One activity involved working with the Women's Shelter and Counselling Services of Huron to establish Women's Resource Centres in Seaforth and Wingham. These centre provide the community with information as to a wide range of services available in Huron County as well as providing programming to meet the needs of the women and children in those communities. SWAN's training committee has recently worked with the Ministry of the Solicitor General and Correc- tional Services in providing two days of training to police officers in Huron County. The group has elementary and separate school systems to educate students, staff and teachers on the issues of viol- ence against women and to develop policies to address the issue. The group has jointly sponsored the Women Today the annual Take Back the Night march, the Decem- ber 6 Vigil remembering the Montr6a1 Massacre and Interna- tional Women's Day in March. • 'The SWAN Report' is con- tributed regularly to newspapers in the area. Iglooshelp beat "blahs" at local children's centre Everyone has been welcomed back to the Seaforth Co-operative Children's Centre after the Christ- mas holiday. December was filled with smells of shortbread and gin- gerbread and Tots of sparkling dec- orations on the tree. The children enjoyed a skating Christmas party which included a visit from Santa Claus, face painting and sing -song of all their newly -learned Christmas songs. The children's centre ended the year with a visit to the Manor for a Christmas sing son?. Happy Birthday in December to Kelly Coleman, Lindsay Hoegy, Tanner Ward, Michael Prince, Adam Bracckcr, Ian Murray and Joshua Shea. The snow arrived January 1, just in time for the children's unit on winter. On several of the very snowy days when the children were'nt able to go outside the .centre brought the snow inside to play with and observe. The children have been making igloos and lots of interesting snow people. To take away the winter 'blahs' they had a beach theme and pulled out summer and sunglasses. Also in January the centre welcomed the Health Unit to talk to us on how to care for teeth. Happy Birthday in January to Kyle Forney, Brent Melady and Bryce Carruthers.
