KiTOEra KITCHEN NOT COMPLETE-One of the major problems facing the new Johnsburg high school is an unfinished kitchen. The firm originally hired to supply the kitchen equipment went bankrupt, so other equipment being ordered piece by piece is arriving slowly and the kitchen is not ready. According to school principal William Hayes, "everyone is brown-bagging it until the kitchen is finished. We are supplying milk, but that is it until the facilities are ready." A problem with the electrical hook-up of the stoves in the kitchen is the latest problem to plague the kitchen area. STAFF PHOTO-WAYNE GAYLORD |--- • Senior Hot Line • (Writ ten under the auspices of Lieutenant Governor Dave O'Neal) Q What role, as mandated by the State of I l l inois, does the Governor s Office of Manpower and Human Development play in relat ionship to the senior ci t izens in I l l inois? A The responsibil i ty of the Governor 's Office of Manpower and Human Development (GOMHD) to the senior ci t izens of I l l inois is a part of i ts overall mission as well as a part of each of i ts functions GOMHD is committed to serving the unemployed and the un­ deremployed through i ts employment and training programs, and while this commitment applies to the population in general . GOMHD has gone a step further and included other workers as one of i ts priori ty target groups GOMHD ' s other commitment, through i ts community service programs is to serve the poor Here again, senior ci t izens have been a priori ty and, in fact , senior ci t izens are given top priori ty in i ts largest program, the Special Crisis Intervention program The above commitments are GOMHD's operational responsibil i t ies In addit ion. GOMHD also has more general responsibil i t ies such as data collection and analysis , overall planning, monitoring, technical assistance, and client ad­ vocacy In al l of these areas, senior ci t izens are a priori ty category GOMHD provides training, employment coun­ seling. job placement, public service employment, fuel bil l r e i m b u r s e m e n t . a n d weatherization services to senior ci t izens Q How is GOMHD funded' ' A. Funding for GOMHD is almost excluseively federal The major exception is in general revenue funds for grants to Community Action agencies and some lesser amounts where federal funding requires a state match Much of the federal funding is used for general employment and training and poverty related services, the beneficiaries of which include senior ci t izens; but . i t is not possible with any degree of accuracy to compute the proport ion «>f general purpose funds used to aid el igible seniors 0 How does I he Governor 's Office of Manpower and Human Development relate to other agencies having concern for. or providing services to senior ci t izens ' ' A GOMHD has cooperative relat ionships with al l other agencies which have concern for. or provide services to senior ci t izens. Also, many of i ts grants to other agencies provide direct or indirect services to senior ci t izens The only programs which specifically exclude par t icipation by seniors are those designed especial ly for youth 0 Does GOMHD have a person or persons directly responsible for services or problems relat ing to senior ci t izens ' ' A Several persons in the agencies have been assigned to provide technical assistance to the Department on Aging in the various CETA and SEOO program areas In addit ion to this . GOMHD has a grant to IDOA which pays for hir ing of thir teen older work em­ ployment and training special ists who are directly responsible for services to senior ci t izens Write or call Lieutenant Governor Dave O'Neal 's Senior Action Centers at 160 North LaSalle Street .
