Dr. Endicott Addresses
Handicapped Meeting

In speaking to the November
Membership Meeting of the Cast-
Jegar Branch, Society for Handi-
capped Children, Dr. W. J. En-
dicott stressed his opinion that
pressure must be brought on the
Provincial Government to build
a home in the Kootenays for
the Handicapped children in the
interior of the province.

Dr. Endicott felt that all
Government spending was being
done at the Const and the in-
terior's falr share of funds for
helping with schools for the
Hanalcapecs should be around

Endicott, seems to favor reten-
tion of the handicapped child in
the parental home, and does not
favor institutional. care, He felt
this to a form of “stalling”, he
said, and_in the faces of this
apparent government policy and
the present economic recession,
the ultimate objective of a
home for the handicapped in the
Kootenays must be delayed, un-
less a very simple home is plan-
ned, :

For the future he felt “It
may be time to put our thinking
caps on and endeavor to exert
political pressure to get a home
built inthe Kootenays.” ~

Dr. Endicott mentioned that
the Woodland Schapl at Vancou-
ver serves only a_ relatively
small portion of the need, and it
is increasingly difficult to gain
admittance there for a patient
even in the most demanding
circumstances. ‘

He felt that an

handicapped was an
necessity — in cases of family
erisis the child has no one to
turn to, if left without parents
there is no one to care for the
hadicapped:child.

Although he had originally
been opposed to day schools for
such children, said Dr, Endicott,
he now feels they have proved
excellent, as many have been
helped without having to. leave
home, and have learned to
mingle with others, however he
did not feel the handicapped
child could ever be completely
integrated with Peeulay day |S
schools.

Dr, ‘Endicott, who. was “intro-
duced to the meeting’ by Pre-
sident L, Korody, related how
he ‘had become interested in the
problem of
children through his work with
children at C. S. Williams
Clinic in Trail.

child who needed medical care,
it was not so with the mentally
handicapped youngsters, and
with this in his, mind he had
compiled a list of the cases with
which he himself was familiar.
There were 30 cases in his area
at the time the Trail Branch
was formed, in an effort to get
started towards a home or school
for these unfortunate children.
+The speaker also traced the
pattern of organization in: other

towns, and explained. how it has

become the practice for the or-'|

ganized centres to take on the
job of starting a branch in towns
nearby. In this way, it was the
responsibility of the Trail Branch
to help out the Castlegar group.
