The Huron Expositor, 1978-03-30, Page 2222 THE HURON 4XPOSITOR MARCH 30, 1978 Ch•ild abuse snowballs, iu ieeburg he said. Emotional maltreatment can be just as severewith the consequences appearing years later, • Judge Gammell said society has been picking up the pieces• in child abuse cases for a long time. This is a costly item with a growing ,number of people being kept in jails and mental institu- tions. • "There must be more prevention than protection if society is to survive," he cencltided; John Penn, local director of HuronCounty's Family and Children's services, agreed with Judge Gammell and said that preventiOn was the route to go. He said he thought that the agency could help cure families' ills with preventitive medicine. As he outlined in his annual report, many of the agency's 1978 'programs are. designed to help a family spot problems and work with the agency to solve them. Although .many , requ,est help for one child, said Penn, those at the agency feel that the real client and the focus of services is the entire family unit. This is one of the yea sons why the Children's Aid Society changed its name this year to Family and Children's Services. During 1977, said Penn in his report, the agency worked with 344 families and assisted many others for brief periods of time.' The number of children in the care •of the agency rose dramati- cally between April and August 1977 said Fenn,. Most of these children hid been living with abusing families who had been' identified through the community child abuse program. TheSe additional children in care, together with more children in institutional care than ' antici- pated, created a year end Budget deficit of some $32,000. Penn said the provincial government has given verbal approval for these additional . funds and county council also approved the deficit.: The adoption picture, reported Penn. remained similar to —previous years. The adoptions of 15,eltildre'n were finalized during the year. While infants available for adoption remain scarce he sun. -1000110110 .„ ...... ..... transform your kitchen from4nordinary to an exciting and unique part of your home.
