The fact that many social service agencies have their head offices located outside the county or in apart of the county not readily accessible to the entire clientele, makes the delivery o1 service even more dif- lieult. Ms. Kowbuz says that for this reason also, the definition of total community needs is difficult to determine. "It is recognized that the development of volunteer services and the presence of self-help groups are healthy signs of any progressive community," she says. • The proposed Volunteer Bureau would offer service .rte. individuals wishing to volunteer through planned recruitment personal in- terview, referral to organization and further counselling on ways to broaden their community service," according to the proposal sent to L.I.P. It would be established to provide consultation to citizens organizations through volunteer op - unteer the estnl!:tshment and maintenance o f ' n°t rds for volunteer service, She also hopes the new groups would, co-ordinate joint efforts of two or more agencies encies in developing Standards. recruiting and training volunteers, _ and g g reco nizio contribution made byvolunteers, ft would sponsor or st un, late s. oasorsh1ip of programs educational p r ams related ..... _. to citizen participation in agency services and to present specialized training programs, she says. The bureau would also promote recognition of volunteers in community service and, serve as a resource to agencies seeking tained and experienced board members. CENTRAL LOCATION If approved, the Central Volunteer Bureau would be located in either Goderich or Clinton, in order to provide accessability to as many people as possible. It would ,provide full time employment for four persons during a six month period and these staff members would be responsiblei for establishing community awareness of the Bureau, identifying im- mediate needs andsetting out basic guidelines for future operation. Ms. Kowbuz explains;tit an Advisory Committee consisting of representives from various community agencies will be established to provide guidance and ongoing community input. This committee would also assist the Bureau personnel Summerhitl ladies c1u b� P lan to have hobo leas Marion Snell was hostess for the September meeting of the Summerhill Ladies' Club.

Waterloo, London and Toronto, Ms. Kowbuz notes that although these are all urban settings, their conceptual r, framework and actual fun- ction would lend themselves to a county such as 'Huron. "The basic ingredients for a successful bureau," she says"appear to be in- dentifiable groups andin- dividuals who are in need of assistance and a strong community support both in terms of time and money. These all seem evident in this area." A good deal of time has been given by both agency people and private citizens in working out the basic ground rules for a Central Volunteer Bureau, Ms. Kowbuz ex- plained.. "We may also say that we are reasonably sure that office space will .be donated to the project by people inthe community." "It should also be noted," she _ sayr; ` "that volunteer bureaus that have been in existence for some time -- evolve from being co- ordinating bodies into agencies that are clearing houses for all kinds of volunteer work." «Mss i owbuz alsassuggeat"+ that such groups "seem to be the apparent motivator for development of autonomous self-help groups re strictly voluntary programs ins -their respective communities. Ms. Kowbuz also noted that she is presently looking for individuals and groups who Might have thoughts about the ways in which such a bureau might be useful to. them. Such persons should contact Mary Ann Kowbuz at Box 235 Bayfield or telephone 482-3194.
