is doing to help solve them in advance Recently arrangements were made or a group of Indian children to attend the public school in a northern Ontario town The principal the school in the town was aware that Indian children sometimes had a rough time at Ihe hands other students and to try to forestall this kind of situalion he called In a Human Rights Commission counsellor to talk to the other children The counsellor asked the children any ol them had ever moved to a new school and what they thought it would feel like they were the strangers In this way he helped them understand how the Indian children would be feeling when they arrived and the integration proceeded relatively smoothly Community counselling is one the major roles of your Ontario Human Rights Commission We hold seminars and discussions with police in areas where there are communication barriers between them and minority groups to help relieve tension and promote mutual understanding We attend meetings of immigrants and native born minority groups to explain to them both their rights under the legislation and their responsibilities as citizens of this Province We also help bring people into contact with local agencies like homeandschool groups community and government agencies and churches which are available to help but which many people don t even know exist Wherever there s a difficulty based on race language colour or creed the Human Rights Commission is available to generate discussion and motivate people to develop understanding and respect for the other s point of view Our job is to help bring people together and encourage healthier relationships among all groups If you would like more information or assistance contact the Human Rights Commission at any of the followinq addresses
