J. ioo. i Mental Health Group Organizing Family Counselling Service The Jackson County Mental Health committee has been holding frequent meetings rec ently to organize a temporary Family Counselling Service using volunteer workers as counsellors. The purpose would be to demonstrate the value of such a service in the hope that the community will support a similar program with a paid staff. ' It is hoped that the service may be started within a few weeks, committee members said. One part of the Mental Health committee under the chairmanship of Miss Celia Walker is working on the de tailed plans of securing coun sellors, arranging for a time and place to carry on the work and other details. The other part of the com mittee, with Mrs. L. E. Gus tison as subcommittee .chair man is charged with giving the community information about the services, both be fore and after it is established. Present Plan The present plan is the re sult of at least three years of study by the committee. It has heard speakers with an expert knowledge of what has been done and can be done. It conducted an intensive study by sending out questionnaires to professional groups in the community. This showed con clusively that all professional people 'are constantly aware of the need of people for help concerning marriage difficul ties, marriage planning, work adjustments and many other problems, the committe noted. The committee feels that a more complete demonstration of the need can be made by setting up a service on a temporary basis. Although this temporary service plans to use volunteer workers they are to be carefully selected and screened and will all be people who have had training and experience in counselling. The volunteer workers also will work closely under ' the supervision and guidance of Dr. Harry Danielson, psy- rchiatrist. Further details will be an nounced as soon as available. A list of available speakers also will be given so that in terested groups may have an opportunity to learn more about the project, members said.
