(photo/Pat Bolen) Community Matters in Exeter By Pat Bolen TIMES -ADVOCATE STAFF EXETER — Representatives from sev- eral different aid agen- cies were at Trivitt Church in Exeter Oct. 5 for the next stage of the Huron Community Matters project. In the spring of 2005, the Huron United Way joined with 16 other United Ways in the province to ask communi- ty citizens what role they see for the United Way and what they see as the most pressing issues in their communities. In the period since, a OUR ADVERTISING POLICY Advertising in the Times -Advocate is accept- ed on condition that, in the event of a typo- graphical error, that portion of the advertising space occupied by the erroneous item, will be re -run in a subsequent issue as a make good at no charge, while the balance of the advertisement will be paid for at an applica- ble rate.

TIMES -ADVOCATE Exeter 235-1331 I series of consultations have been held through- out Huron County as well as focus groups at the Clinton Adult Day Centre, St. Anne's Secondary School, Goderich District Collegiate Institute as well as with Women in Rural Poverty. During the meetings a set of questions were asked of residents of vari- ous communities includ- ing: • What are your com- munities' most pressing issues? • What are the impor- tant factors creating these issues? • What is working well in the community? • What do we need to improve or add that would make a difference? Areas covered in the Community Priorities Initiative were separated into North, Central, South, and Huron East as well as Goderich and Grand Bend. The top issues identified as a whole are: • Youth engagement; • Employment; • Economic development; • Affordable housing and poverty. In South Huron the most important issue identified was informa- tion and communication with 28 per cent of 36 votes cast. Other key issues in South Huron are a com- bination of lack of afford- able housing/poverty/food banks with a lack of men- tal health services and a public relations strategy in fourth. Also discussed at the meeting was the intro- duction of the 211 Human Service phone number which provides information for all types of social services. The number was start- ed in Toronto and presently the only rural community using 211 is Collingwood. Huron County United Way executive director Kimberley Payne said one of the advantages of the system will be a live per- son answering the phone with service available in all languages. While the service is available 24 hours a day in Toronto, it is answered only until 5 p.m. in Collingwood after which calls are referred to Toronto. Seniors' issues were reflected as a priority throughout the county with Payne saying Huron County is ranked as one of the oldest counties in Canada. While the county is los- ing youth, seniors are retiring to the area, said Payne. Some of the issues fac- ing seniors include resi- dences that were former- ly open only for seniors to live in that are now open to people whom seniors fear with addiction and mental health issues. Another issue facing seniors is a lack of trans- portation to allow them to get to medical appoint- ments. Payne said what is required is a dialogue with health care officials and creative solutions, such as periods set aside at health care facilities for seniors travelling long distances. Payne said some of the issues raised by the study have already started to be addressed but the United Way needs the help of the community. "The United Way can't do this in isolation and neither can the munici- pality. It has to be some- thing the community says 'this is what we want.'" While disappointed at the attendance at the meeting in Exeter, Payne said another can be held if there is interest, which recently happened in Seaforth. "The community was disappointed in their own response so they've called the meeting again," said Payne. "If the community wanted us to call it, absolutely we would come back."
