The goals of the CMHA are to: * maintain mental health and prevent mental illness through education, life skills programs, and work adjustment training * promote understanding of life stresses and mental illness * encourage improved treatment and community services for those concerned about their mental health needs and those of others. The activites that a local branch might undertake could include * community education through special programs, workshops and self-help groups. * information and speakers on mental health issues * counselling referral * special displays * community friends (volunteers for nurs- ing home residents) * activity centre programs (ex - psychiatric patients) Those involved in the inital planning meetings have represented a broad spec- trum of community services including representatives from County Council, Com - unity Psychiatric Services, Huron -Perth Centre for Children and Youth, Huron Coun- ty Health Unit, Women Today, Huron Coun- ty Board of Education and the Community Services Council. Several individuals not associated with any services are also members of the committee. Community response and involvement is vital for the establishment of a branch as the whole organization is dependent on the involvement of nonmental health professionals.

Brucefield family takes in By Mary Chessell VARNA - Roberta 'Bert' os spoke onn her work with young people, teenagers, in her home near Brucefield at the October meeting of Varna United Church Women. She and her husband Dick have seven youngsters and their daughter, Dana, living with them at present in their renovated schoolhouse. It is now a specializ- ed group home. This is Family and Children's services 75th anniversary. At present there are 50 foster homes in the county, not enough for the increasing number of children needing home care. A social worker visits them monthly. Discipline consists of seeing that bad behavior does not achieve its goal; foster parents are not allowed to slap a child. The rules are carefully explained to new residents, and after one week's grace they are penalized 50 cents of their 'allowance for undone chores, etc. Each child has a bank account and can save for items they want. neighbors The Kloss's have supportive g who employ the girls for babysitting and the boys for farm work. There is lots of yard space for a rink and games, and Dick teaches them swimming and canoeing. They camp at canoe meets and go to Florida on•March break, with each child paying his own way. Bert compared caring for children to rais- ing a garden - good food (fertilizer), protec- tion from harmful situations (weeds), car- ing parents. They need predictability, need to know what will , happen for misde- meanors, and need to experience success and rewards. Physical exercise such as five mile walks helps to burn off anger and excess weight'. Walking with them appears to keep Bert in shape, too. Five of the seven children they care for will probably be with them until they finish their education. Mrs. Kloss feels having these children has made her own children more caring. Even though they say, "You have to be crazy to do this," they may eventually do the same thing. Parents who are having difficulty with their children should ask for help early, before problems are severe. Suspected abuse of children should be reported to Family and Childen's Services. Names of those who report are kept confidential. If the family refuses help, not much can be done. The' Bill of Children's Rights causes a lot of difficulty because children can refuse much needed counselling. Mona Stephenson, program convenor and member of the Church in Society committee for the group, invited and introduced Bert. She was thanked by Deb Rathwell and Personals Yvonne Reynolds has returned from a weeks stay in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, where she had a wonderful visit with her son Don, his wife Debbie, and their baby daughter Jessica Erin.
