Boundaries Review
Recommended that provincial SSAAM attend a Boundaries Review
session on behalf of Student Services Administrators. Bill
Warren and Barb Coulter were asked to take input from the
group to the next provincial meeting.
Children's Health
Regarding the Child Health Strategy Committee meeting held
February 28, 1994 in Brandon, a number of coordinators
attended this meeting. Observations relative to the meeting
included:
Physical health of children in our region is OK. Of
more concern is the emotional and mental health,
particularly related to quality of parenting.
The meeting was well attended and many groups
represented (Public Health, Speech, Education,
Corrections, Police, Doctors, etc.)
Manitoba has one of the highest rates of teenage
pregnancy.
When adults take little or no responsibility for their
children we see an increasing number of children
functioning essentially as street children.
