At the committee's November 12 meeting, a basic outline of their goals was presented. At the top of the list was increasing public awareness on mental health through education, the press, establishing a speakers' bureau, written literature and spon- soring or co -sponsoring events. One of their main objectives at the present time is to develop a pamphlet which will outline a patient's basic problem and give a phone number and name of an agency or individual which should be contacted. Another goal of the committee is to develop programs such as self help groups, transportation and take a look at the existing mental health agencies. As it is with most new groups, fun- ding is a major concern. Raising funds from the private sector as well as applying for government grants will be looked into in hopes of assisting with the development of needed programs and pamphlets. At their next meeting, on December 17 starting at 9 a.m. at the new Women Today Office at 56 Huron Road, a guest speaker will be pro- viding the committee with details on how fund raising can be carried out effectively. • • • • ALL THIS WEEK 10,a 50% OFF EVERYTHING IN THE STORE (except patterns) dka•Vot • FABRICS • •l 373 Main St., • 9 - 6 Mon. - Sat. • `Open till 9 Thurs. a Fri. • • • • • • i • • • • • • • • Times -Advocate, December 3, 1986 Page 9 Selwols gelling results frora driving project Middlesex County secondary schools are now in the second year of their SADD —Students Against Driv- ing Drunk -- Program and they feel they're getting results. Started in the county in 1985 by cion Director Stewart Toll and the school student coun- cils, its purpose is to make students aware of the dangers of driving drunk and to enlist their involvement in 'b ganizing programs to combat the number one killer of teenagers: death due to drinking and driving. The pro- gram informs students and involves them directly. There are four goals: to help eliminate the drunk driver and save lives; to alert high school students to the dangers of driving and drinking; to conduct community alcohol awareness programs; to organize peer counselling programs to help students who may have concerns about alcohol. Last year, students organized a SADD chapter or committee in each secondary school. They distributed SADD logo key rings, held poster con- tests, put on showcase displays in school cafeterias, made school assembly presentations by police, legal, victim, and student represen- tatives, and distributed newspaper Cites need of volunteers For their November 13 meeting Leona Amos and Elsie Witteveen ar- ranged for Alpha Tau Chapter of Beta Sigma Phi to attend the theatre in St. Marys to see the play, The Tomorrew Box. A visit to the Swiss Pantry com- pleted the evening. Elsie Hermann was hostess for Alpha Tau's November 25 meeting assisted by Brenda Hennessey. Ken Hermann Cancer Society Campaign Chairman for Southwestern Ontario showed two films "Living Proof" and "We Can Help". He stressed the need for volunteers for the Cancer Society. Plans were finalized for the Christmas Party at the Masonic Hall on December 2 and for the upcoming evening on January 13 at the Exeter Villa. A silent auction and raffle was held by the Ways and Means Committee. A delicious lunch was served by Elsie and Brenda. Protect yourself against cancer in two ways: know the • "Seven Steps to Health" and contribute generously to the Canadian Cancer Societyt, which through research and public education is working to prevent cancer. 1 a articles and SADD contracts. The SADD contract, signed by stu- dent and parent or guardian, is the student's pledge to call parents for ad- vwce or transportation at any hour, from any place, if the student is ever in a situation where he or she has had too much to drink. In turn, the parent agrees to provide transportation or taxi fare home with no questions or discussion until a later date. Community awareness programs have been carried out by students and teachers to keep people informed about the activities and the value of the SADD program. This year, student councils will focus on getting the message to parents. The initiative will be to get more parents and students involved and committed to signing contracts. The SADD county committee is .en- couraging schools to do this in five ways: concentrating activities during the first week of December and follow up with other events through the year; holding assemblies using the play Getting Wrecked and the movie, The SADD Contract; sending newslet- ters to parents and holding parent in- ter"iew nights with displays and op- portunities to review contracts; sen- ding articles to local newspapers in which contracts are copied; distributing stickers, coasters, pins, and additional contracts.
