SUCTION 2 - PAGE 8 - PLAINDEALER - WEDNESDAY. NOVEMBER 5.1980 Pioneer Card Project Johnsburg Late last summer, a group of parents took on a Christmas card project when they learned that Pioneer center could no longer offer client created silk screened Christmas cards because of the prohibitive cost. Placing a high value on showing the community what han dicapped individuals can do and helping Pioneer center with some funding deficits motivated the parent group to sponsor the sale of original client Christmas cards. The cards that were professionally printed by a friend of Pioneer center, are taken from an adaptation of a design by a develop- mentally disabled adult. The parent group is eliciting community help with sales because some parents are quite elderly and some clients are too han dicapped to be involved in sales. Anyone that is in terested in participating in this benefit by selling Pioneer center cards, is asked to please contact Susan Hohm at 385-6173 or Pioneer center at 344-1230. Prizes will be given in ap preciation to the top salespeople. Cindy Olson, representing the parent group, stated, "We are not out asking for donations; we are trying to help Pioneer center with some funding deficits so they can continue to aid our handicapped children and adults with programs that are geared toward maximizing each in dividuals' potential." Increase Homemaker Use Several communities in McHenry county made substantial use of homemaker service during the past year according to figures recently released by Denis Morimoto, Area Administrator of Family Care Services of I^ake and McHenry counties. These figures reveal the following: Persons living in Cary and McHenry received more than three times the amount of service as they did in the previous year. Cary went from 368 hours of service in fiscal 1979 to 1,242 in fiscal 1980, while McHenry residents increased from 592 hours to 1,932 hours during the same period. In Marengo and Wood stock service doubled bet ween 1979 and 1980. Service to Marengo residents jumped from 208 hours in 1979 to 452 hours in 1980, while service in Woodstock went from 408 hours in 1979 to 837 hours in 1980. Jointly these four communities received 4,463 hours of service during fiscal 1980. a substantial increase over the 1,576 hours received during the previous year. According to Mr. Morimoto, one of the reasons for this increase is that more IVJc Henry county residents are becoming aware of the h o m e m a k e r s e r v i c e provided by the agency. He explained that homemaker service places a trained family care aide in the home to assist families. The service includes child care, h o u s e h o l d b u d g e t i n g , housekeeping and parenting skills. When elderly persons are involved, it may also include helping with- per sonal needs. He pointed out that in a time of crisis or emergency such as the illness of a mother with small children a family care aide may be placed in the home for as much as eight hours a day. In other cases where such intensive care is not required, such as service to an aged person needing minimal assistance, it may mean a four hour service period once or twice a week. The Lake and McHenry counties office receives support from a number of United Ways in the area including the United Way of McHenry county. The office is located at 509 E. Park avenue, in Libertyville, and is a division of Family Care Services of Metropolitan Chicago. Anyone who feels they might need homemaker service or who wishes ad ditional information, should call Mr. Morimoto at 362- 0760.
