Huron agency stresses family approach BY: SHARON DIETZ The director of Huron 4County's Family and Chil- dren's services told Huron •Gatinty Council in -his arintral report that programs devel- oped by the agency in recent years reflect the priorities the Ministry of Community and Social Services is advo- cating in 1981. John Penn told Huron emCountyber2C7ci unnl ec Coil t iant gt htehiar t N tomy 0- programs already esta- blished by the agency are in line w ith the ministry's..ob- jectives this year. When the Children's Aid Society of Huron County changed its name to Family and Children's Services in 1977. the Board of Directors signalled to the community that its objective was to develop family treatment services in the home which were aimed at preventing family breakdown. Since 1971. said Mr. Penn. the agencs has introduced a significant number of pre- vention programs aimed at supporting families so that children may remain in their crwn home rather than come into foster care. This family focused approach to child protective services has been streng- thened this year by the funning of three new .pro- grams. They include a parent aide program aimed at the training and support of par- ents and the employment of a volunteer co-ordinator to re- cruit and train voluteers to launch a program which supports the %Nark of the family service caseworkers. The 'third program is the ongoing trainingof profess- ional staff in marriage and family therapy to ensure that the agency has the skills necessary to carry out the objectives of family based services. A second major policy decision of the Board of Directors was to develop specialized foster family care for children who, for a variety of reasons. are diffi- cult to place in regular foster homes. reported Mr. Penn. Many of these', very upset children were once placed in institunons outude of Huron at an average cost ranging from S16.000 to S20.000 per year. The further development of specialized foster homes in Huron County has resulted in con- siderable savings in 19801 remarked .Penn. At the beginning -of -the year the agency had five children in paid institutions. Today the agency has only one child in such a placement yet, the agency still receives funding for all the children who require this type of program. This money can then be channelled into other programs because it is not being used to keep the children in the more costly institutional programs. During the -past year. the agency -has • appointed a foster family worker who has responsibility for recruiting. training and supporting the specialized foster families. Mr. Penn also pointed out that the past year has been crucial for the funding of children's aid societies. In the past. child welfare agen- cies were allowed to ,ineur budget deficits and received supplemental funding at year's end • much to the contern and frustration of the municipalities. lassdied Ads pay dividends. 1981 FORD FAIRMONT 4 door sedan. 6 cylinder engin., automatic. steel belted radial tires.
