CONTINUOUS FORMS Blank & Printed PORT PERRY STAR 235 Queen Street 985-7383 Family relief services now offered in Township Public attitudes toward mental retardation are changing, and one aspect of this is that more and more families are deciding to raise a retarded: child at home' rather than in an institution. In order to assist families who have made this decision, the Durham Region Family Relief Service was establis- hed a year ago to serve the larger urban areas in the south of the Region. Co-ordinator Valerie Barry says that after a successful year of operation in the south, the Service is now being expanded to take in the three northern Town- ships of Scugog, Brock, and Uxbridge. Ms. Barry says that raising a retarded child puts added strain on families, and there are times when the family members "need to get away', for a weekend or longer. The relief service provides trained families who can 2 care for a retarded indivi- dual of any age for periods up to three weeks. In the first year of opera- tion in the south of Durham, 74 families with retarded individuals took advantage of the service, and Ms. Barry says there is a need to extend the service into the northern Townships. e relief families must take a 12-week training program offered by the organization at Durham College, and also must spend time with the child or adult before they can qualify as relief families. As well, the Whitby office offers a 24-hour answering service for emergency situations. Ms. Barry says that the & project in south Durham has worked well in the past year, and there are two other similar projects now being organized in other areas of the province. Anyone from this area yg wishing information on the service or would like to enquire about becoming a relief family should contact the Whitby office at 668-3812.
