Find Eefuge At Center In its first 18 months, the Center for Women end Children In Crisis has given refuge to 173 women and 250 children - including many Orem residents. According to Rhonda Arnold, director of the center, 27 battered women and children from Orem have sought refuge at the center, while others have called in for help and advice. "We receive four to five calls a week for family violence," said Sgt. Jim Simmons of the Orem Police Department. "Not all the calls we get are so severe that the spouse has to leave the house," Simmons said. "But our officers do make the couple aware of the Center for Women and Children ' in Crisis so they can seek shelter if they feel the need." Simmons said many of the calls police receive are repeat complaints, but the abused spouse.doesn't always seek professional help. The center, which opened in February 1984, is funded in part by the United Way of Utah County. United Way allocated $35,000 for the women's center this year. "The Center for Women and Children in Crisis is providing a very critical service to our community," said Bill Hulterstrom, -executive director of United Way of Utah County. "Many people don't realize that spouse and child abuse is a problem right her in Utah County," Hulterstrom said. Providing refuge for battered women and children is only one of three types of services offered by the Center, Arnold said. "We serve as a refuge for battered women. We offer outpatient out-patient counseling and we sponsor weekly group-therapy sessions," she said.

Orem-Geneva Times Thursday, November 7, 1985 Moras 'And Kids More than 400 women and children have stayed at the center so far, but an additional 300 phone calls are received each month from women seeking help. "We receive many phone calls from women who may never come in to the center," Arnold said. Spouse abuse follows a specific pattern, she said. The pattern has three stages, beginning with tension build-up, followed by an explosive reaction, then loving and contrite behavior. Tension can build up "anywhere from hours to weeks to months," Arnold said. Women reach the point at which they feel they are "walking around on egg shells. " This leads to the explosive stage, during which the actual abuse occurs. Most women who have experienced this cycle two or more times know when an explosion will take place and they often seek refuge before any abuse occurs, Arnold said.

According Accor-ding to Dr. Harold Jacklin, Facilities Manager for the District, the award is a matching grant which means that the District will chip in an equal amount, bringing the total to be spent on energy efficiency improvements to $181,632. According to Jacklin, the money will be spent to improve the energy efficiency ef-ficiency at four local schools: Forbes Elememtary, Windsor Elementary, Westmore Elementary and Orem High School. At Forbes Elementary, some $6,848 will be used to add dampers and a mixed air controller to minimize the influx of outside air. A flue barametric damper system will also be added to the existing boiler. In addition, a technical audit of the system will be paid for from the funds. A total of $19,846 will be spent on the Windor facility. The major cost will involve the installation of a computerized com-puterized energy management system at the school. Also, skylights will be insulated and a hot water system added. The technical audit will be paid for with the funds. Westmore, where a total of $11,688 will be spent, will see the installation in-stallation of a computerized energy management system. Part of the expenditure ex-penditure is for the preliminary technical audit. Most of the grant will be spent at Orem High School where $143,249 will be used to improve the energy efficiency effi-ciency of three separate structures.

"Our philosophy is not 'divorce the bum.' Our philosophy is to help women understand the pattern of violence and realize their children are affected as much as the women themselves." Spouse abuse is generational, meaning it passes from parents to children, said Arnold. "If spouse abuse doesn't affect your directly, if affects your indirectly," she said. "Many abused children grow up to be alcoholics, drug abusers and spouse abusers themselves." Most people have four myths about spouse abuse, Arnold said. These myths are that the abuse is the woman's fault, that women are masochists, that alcohol is always involved and that spouse abuse does not affect the children. "Both partners need to take responsibility for the abuse and work together to solve the problem," Arnold said. system will be installed in the school's gym, in the shop and in the main building.
