As is well known. the Can-’ ladian Mental Health Associa- ltiOl‘l is a volunteer organization ldedicated to the aim of improv- ling the level of mental health and extending treatment ser- vices for the mentally ill across our nation. In pursuit of this aim. the Association organizes educational programmes de- signed to inform the public about mental health problems and the services available to the mentally ill. and co-oper- ates with the professional workers in the field in spon- soring projects to reduce that incidence of mental illness and improve the treatment of the unfortunate victims of this type of illness. In order to bring the benefits of their efforts to ‘the local level, the National Association has organized Div- isions in each province which, Canadian Mental Health Asso- ciation will conduct a county- wide campaign to support its activities for the year. At that time, representatives of the Branch will call at homes and businesses throughout the County to explain the work of the Association and solicit donations On June 3rd and 4th. the York County Branch of the The York County Branch, which was organized in 1958, has been one of the most active branches in the province and: can take justifiable pride in its: record of accomplishments: During the four years that it has been in operation, the Branch has developed an ex- tensive programme of activities planned to expand and improve ‘the mental health services available to the residents of York County. In addition to‘, providing the original impetus for the. organization of the York County Mental Health Clinic. which has now been in operation for two years, and the inclusion of a psychiatric wing in the York County Hos- pital at Newmarket which will be open in 1964; the Branch has organized a band of 160 volunteer workers who regul- arly visit the out-patient cent- res in the area and supplement the work of the professional personnel in the treatment and rehabilitation of patients. The programme also includes the bringing of information about the problems of mental illness and the services availâ€" able for dealing with them. to groups such as teachers. public health nurses. the police, the clergy and others who are dir- ectly involved with them, as well as the general public.

It is also planned to co-oper- ate with the Mental Health Clinic in establishing and oper- ating a camp for emotionally disturbed children where acti- vities of a therapeutic nature will be carried on under the direction of highly trained pro- fessional leaders. Apart from limited grants from the. county and municipal- ities and a very small revenue from membership fees. the Branch depends entirely on voluntary donations from the people of the County for the financial support necessary to carry on its programme. Dur~ ing the two former campaigns. the people of York County have responded splendidly and we trust that we will again have their generous support during the 1963 campaign. When the White Cross Canvas- ser knocks at your door on June 3rd or 4th. we trust you will receive them warmly and donate in the same liberal manner that you have in form- er years. l1Wo‘rld Plorughing ‘wMatch Back Here miter Ten Years President For the first time in 10 years, the World Ploughing Contest will again‘be held in Canada.
