Block Parent responsibilities would include providing shelter for children who were lost, hurt, or approached or molested by a stranger. and calling the police for assistance. and keeping an eye out for suspicious persons or fights. Constable Young was called upon to explain the screening process. which is strictly confidential and includes a police check with local, OPP and RCMP files for criminal records of applicants. They are not required to give first aid. discipline children, or provide food or transportation. There was also some concern over what is expected of a block parent. Mrs. Moyer explained the volunteer would be provided with a luminous sign, which would be placed in a conspicuous window, and which could be removed when the block parent was away. or simply not available to the children. Of course, the application was refused by the police, who were very appreciative of the man‘s willingness to inform them of his whereabouts. He cited a recent case in Peel in which a sexual offender applied to be a Block Parent. Young also discussed the police role in answering calls from Block Parents, and the Safety Bureau‘s plans for educating children about the program.

The program can also be in- corporated into the children‘s regular lessons with teachers' help. A plan has also been developed by the schools and committee whereby parents will be required to send a note with another child, or phone the school if their child will be absent from school. Most of the questions asked related to childrens' safety and education on the program, rather than to the in- convenience for the block parent himself. Two visits to each school per year are planned. By this method, immediate action can be taken if a child is not at school and the school has not been notified of his absence. The interest of those present was reflected in the lively question and answer period which followed. If letters sent home to parents meet with the same favorable response as this meeting did, Unionville‘s Block Parent program should be off to a good start. unionville You municipal council has asked the Ontario Ministry of Housing to determine the need for new rent-gearedto-income housing for families in your community.
