"Alcohol abuse is a major problem in Huron . County and most deaths by accident, about 50 per cent, are associated with alcohol. Ten per cent of the people in the county abuse alcohol and it is a major health hazard. "Our role would be one of identification and referral; with counselling services provided by other agencies." Dr. Cieslar told council a more detailed proposal on the alcohol abuse program will follow. He said he hopes it will be a comprehensive program which will ,educa.te adults and children. Another . problem ad- dressed by the MOH is that of family violence, . a problem which the doctor termed "extensive". "We're trying to get statistics on the problem, but right now we don't really know the extent," he said. "Children get a role model from their parents and in most cases a child will see 35 violent episodes before a mother will leave that situation." He told councillors that one study suggests there is violence in more than 10 per cent of families. Public awareness and education will help combat the problem, he said, adding that early identification is a good start. "To stop the violence may require use of the court system and the laying of assault charges." He said there `is no data available linking the in- cidence of alcohol abuse with family violence.
