Hur�n Centre has second annual meeting
Don Keillor, director of
the Huron Centre for
Children and Youth in
Clinton, said the purpose
of the centre is "to assist
or support the family in
what it wants to do in the
first place."
Mr. Keillor, who was
speaking at the centre's
second annual meeting,
told guests . the centre
staff conducted 1,000
interviews with families
in the period from
August, 1977 to July, 1978.
He said the staff has
spent 700 hours working
with parents as a couple
and over 700 ... hours
working with families as
a. whole.
The director said
families are solving their
own problems through
the process .of working
with counsellors at the
Huron Centre for
Children and Youth.
Mr. Keillor said in the
past year, there has been
"a gradual emergence .of
a clear therapeutic ap-
proach to the work we're
doing."
The director pointed
out that in the past, some
social scientists had put
the emphasis on
replacing the family in
society, whereas the
Huron Centre for
Children and Youth sees
its role as working to
support families.
The director said
clients are coming to the
centre now from all over
the county, including
Exeter, Goderich,
Wingham and Seaforth,
as 'well as Clinton.
• When the centre was

first. established in
Clinton, there was• some
concern that other county
residents' wouldn't have
access to the service.
Mr. Keillor said the
centre's staff have
succeeded in creating
access to the centre from
anywhere in Huron
County. If families can't
come to the centre, then
staff members will travel
to them on an outreach
basis.
- Also, the centre is open
on Monday and Thursday
nights to ensure "we are
available to families
when they can best come
to us," Mr. Keillor said.
The director said the
centre has never really
had a waiting list. He„
added staff can 'usually
guarantee that callers
will have their -first ap-
pointment with a coun-
sellor within one week of
calling the centre.
Chairman's
report •
Gordon Phillips of the
board of directors read
the chairman's report,
prepared by Howard
James, who was unable
to attend the annual
meeting.
In his report, Mr.
James said, "the ac-
tivities of the board of
directors this year have
been a good deal more
tranquil and for the most
part less dramatic than
those that occurred
during our first year as a
duly elected board."
The report added,
"While statistical reports
have shown a steady
increase in the use of the
centre by the public
throughout the county,
the financial statement
will show we are still
operating well within the
allocated budget."
In . pinpointing
highlights of the past
year from the board's
minutes, Mr. James
selected the establish-
ment of a new salary
scale and adoption of a
salary- grill for centre
employees, the adoption
of a program of personnel
practices and the hiring
of two new staff members
- Dr. Tony Miller, a
registered psychologist
and Mrs. ' Marilyn
McMahon, who provides
additional secretarial.
help.
The :final highlights
mentioned' in the
chairman's report were
the creation of a new
brochure to publicize the
purpose and activities of
the Huron Centre and the
Experience '78 program
sponsored by the centre'
this summer.
The Experience '78
project was created for
the purpose of
establishing Big Brothers
Associations in each of
the major ' centres of
Huron County.
Mr. James reported,
"Each of the five towns
(Goderich, Clinton,
Seaforth, Wingham and
Exeter) now has either
an Association or has
established a planning
committee that will lead
eventually to the
establishment of an
association."
Board Members
In the meeting
following the two reports,
Dr.. Bruce Thomson, of
the board's nomination
committee, reported that
Mrs. Ila Kayes of RR 3
Parkhill, was stepping
down as a member of the
board.
Dr. Thomson said Mrs.
Kayes has served on the
board since the centre
was just a concept and he
thanked her for her work.
Dr. Thomson said the
remaining nine members
of the 11 -member board
were allowing .their
names to �';nd for .rep'
election.
The tenth member of
the board is an annual
appointment . by the
members of Huron
County council. In the
past year, Warden Gerry
Ginn served as council's,
appointee on the Huron
Centre board.
When no new names
were, nominated for the
board, the nine board
members were returned
by acclamation.
Dr. Thomson said the
nominating committee
hopes they can find
another member for the
board who might
represent either the Big
Brothers organizatyion or
the developmentally
handicapped.
