CARD BUSINESS BOOMING FOR STATE Business is booming at State Driver License Division oftices which now are issuing more than 1,000 identification identifica-tion cards a month, mostly to aid public welfare recipients recipi-ents in cashing their checks. Earl N. Dorius, division director, said there was little call for the cards, which cost $2 apiece, until the State Retail Grocers Association decided to require their use to prevent fraud and theft of checks. Many of the welfare recipients do not have driving licenses, li-censes, so they had little proof of identity for cashing checks. The identification cards are similar to driving licenses li-censes in that each bears a photograph of the holder, plus his social security number, description, age and address. ad-dress. Provision for issuance of such cards is in the State Liquor Control Act. X ' """X fA IY V f o '- r'V i -V -J 1 'Y c r 4- . A Jii'll y -a MRS. THELMA CARSON, teacher aide at ihe Utah State Training School, teaches children in the education department at the Utah State Training School as Dr. Merlin Mecham and Mrs. M. E. Harris, Jr., executive director, Utah Mental Health Association, look on. Residential Care At Training School Evaluated Residential care offered to mentally retarded persons in the state or individuals with mental health problems Is currently being be-ing evaluated by a sub-committee of the Utah State Advisory Committee for Handicapped Children. The Committee recently toured the Utah State Training School and plans visits to other 24-hour 24-hour care programs including the Utah State Hospital, community mental health centers and 24-hour 24-hour centers in the community, nursing homes, private anf foster home care and facilities such as sheltered workshops, activity therapy programs and community supportive services. In the day-long session at the American Fork facility, the committee com-mittee visited the newer HIP (Hospital Improvement Program) building and Birch Cottage - the oldest dormitory on campus. In addition they saw the school' sed' ucation program in action and heard reports from Training School staff members. The ratio of residents to staff members was pointed out in the HIP building where residents are grouped in "family' units of six or seven children. The same "mother" (attendant) cares for the children each day. There are 36 attendants for the 48 residents in the cottage, officials said. The staff mem bers were made available through a federal grant of $100,000, which is scheduled to expire February 1, 1971, Paul S. Sagers, training school superintendent, said. He pointed out that under the program, the resident shave been taught such self-help skills as feeding, toilet training and ambulatory am-bulatory skills. Many of the res idents involved in the HIP program pro-gram were purely custodial res idents previous to initiation of the program. Funds from the federal Title I program has helped provide additional staff members for the Habit Training Cottage. Here the residents also reside in family fam-ily groups. Most attend school for at least one-half day, with the school program increased with the ability of the residents. Skills of these children are further fur-ther advanced than those in the HIP cottage, Mr. Sagers said. The Supt. told committee members mem-bers that Birch Cottage was constructed con-structed in 1931. It currently houses 56 boys ranging in age from 18 to 49 with an average I. q. of 12. School officials hope to receive HIP money to hire an additional 26 staff members mem-bers to care for cottage residents. resi-dents. Dean Jones, principal cl the education department and training train-ing school program director, conducted a tour of the school building. Mr. Jones pointed out defic-iences defic-iences of the 1930 era building build-ing such as room, lack of fire escapes and a fire alarm system. sys-tem. New sensory, motor Control Con-trol and ambulatory skill pro grams were also viewed. A total of eight new residential residen-tial Cottages are sought by the the school. Four would be constructed con-structed at the training school and four in Communities throughout through-out the state. Location of these buildings has not been decided, pending further study, but consideration con-sideration is expected to be given to urban areas which show neef for the facilities. Training school officials said there is presently a waiting list off 231 persons seeking admission to the school. In addition there are 237 inactive cases where the family has requested no further service or committees have determined de-termined services are no longer needed. A new activities therapy building build-ing is planned for the school to aid the physical recreational, medical therapy and medical research re-search programs. Dr. Jack A. Madsen exp'ained the new medical teaching and research re-search program. He told Committee Com-mittee members that a complete neuralogical, medical andgenetic history of each resident is now underway. ur. Madsen is aso beginning a program to acquaint practicing physicians of the state in the care of the retarded. A workshop work-shop for the general practitioner in the field of mental retardation is planned as a credit courst. More than 30,000 persons in the state specialized attention, at-tention, Dr. Wiler C. Weser, assistant as-sistant director of the Utah State Training School unit for Medical teaching and research organized in cooperation with the University of Utah Medical School, said. Dr. Weser discussed genetic Counseling and said the figures are based on a three percent population affected by retardation. retarda-tion. Need for phasing out the 1931 residence hall and replacement with smaller units was discussed. Value of the school farm as a theraputic aid to residents was also taken up. A program favoring fav-oring retention of the farm was approved. The adaption of the HIP program pro-gram by the state was also fa vored as the program now in operation in HIP Cottage cannot be renewed with federal funds. Additional funds can be applied for, however, in different areas of need. Mrs. Byran J. (Elaine) Sharp is Chairman of the 14 member sub-committee. She observed that purpose of the group in regard to residential services is to determine what is needed and what is not now provided. Committee Com-mittee goals are to produce the necessary budget requests and legislative proposals as well as to set immediate intermediate and long range goals.
