Integrating the handicapped .EXI, l'ER.-.ln the spring of 1987 the document entitled "Challenges andt Opportunities" •was introduced by -the Ministry of Community and Social Services.. This document promised to have a great impact on . the lives of all people who have bce.n labelled as Developmentally handicapped. It called for the closure of institutions, the reduction .of sheltered workshop placements and placed a whole hearted emphasis on _ - - community integration for people who have been labelled. This docu- mens clearly indicated that all alter- natives would be explored and de:- ‘'eloped oV'eloped to support.Iahelled people and -stated that institutionalizaudin .of children- would be an option of the last resort. - . Presently -approximately three and a half mullion dollars per year comes:into Huron County. to pro- . vide services to people who have been labelled as Developmentally landicappedi. Those funds arc pri- marily at1i inistered.by the three lo- cal associations 'for Community Living--(formerly associations for the 1\1eittally..flandicapped). These funds.are used to provide services - ranging front in -horns support for labelled children to fully integrated supported employment. - -To conform with the philosophy .of Challenges and Opportunities the Ministry of Community and Social Services has directed that county- isle planning cornmittees be formed. The Planning Committees Will be charged with the task of pri- orizing the altdx:ation of funds com- ing into the county to provide ser- vices for labelled people. In: particular, this group. will( be con- cerned with seeing that any new programs developed in Huron County address needs which have 'been identified as a • concern by the whole arca.. • To allow this committee to accu- rately reflect the concerns of la- belled people in the county it must -be consumer driven and its member- ship must include consumers and farnilies of consumers. This 12 per- son committee will be comprised of one Board member from each of the Community Living Associations, one representative from each of the county's three people First Groups, and the three Executive. Directors of the Associations for Community Living. A priority now is to find presentation from the parents of la- belled people from each of the three areas in the county. To this -end, -meetings will be held in Exeter, Godcrich, and Wing - ham for parents to meet, air their concerns and appoint a representa--- tive from each arca to sit on the Planning -Committee.

Stoppers . Although Crime. Stoppers usu- ally deals with more critical crimi- nal . occurrences, the following . crime is serious to a seven-year old from Zurich. On Saturday August 27 a talking ALF doll (worth S125) was taken from the .DominionTavem in Zu- rich. This doll was on loan to the owners of the tavern, David and Marie Gelinas from their seven-• year old son Matthew. • The Gclinas were using ALF ina display -.where ALF Was posed playing the drums. " Matthew re- ceived the toy as.a Christmas pres- ent from his parents. 'To quote Matthew's mother, "He cannot -figure out why someone would steal his ALF." . This wasabusy time in Zurich as the Bean Festival was in full swing and -many people from out of the arca. passed through. We believe that the theft of- ALF_started out as justa joke. it appears this joke got out of hand. Crime Stoppers is ask- ing for the safe return of ALF, no questions asked. He can either be dropped off at thc Dominion Tav- em at the Crime Stoppers office in thc Clinton Police Station. If you know the whereabouts of ALF call Crime Stoppers. Help Matthew understand that mistakes happen, but they can also be Lor- rec:ted. If you have informationabout his or any other crime call Crime Stop- pers toll-free at 1-800-265-1777.
