808 WESLEY (L) WELCOMED TO CLUB
By Rotarian Dan Sweitzer
County Caseload
High At Center
Chattooga County has 16.6
percent of the population in the
four-county region, but it pro
vides 20 percent of the caseload
for the Northwest Georgia
Mental Health, Retardation
and Substance Abuse Center.
That was the word Monday
from Bob Wesley, director of
the center. He addressed the
weekly meeting of the
Summerville-Trion Rotary
Club as the guest of member
Dan Sweitzer. The 20 percent
figure is a little surprising,
Wesley indicated.
The center is based in Fort
Oglethorpe but serves Chat
tooga, a’alker, Dade and
Catoosa Counties, Wesley said.
It provides assistance to
children, adolescents, adults
and the elderly.
NEW CLINIC
The state plans to erect a
new mental health clinic, a
group residential home, day
treatment and mental retarda
tion service center in Summer
ville in the immediate future,
Wesley indicated.
SERVICES
Its mental health program
offers group therapy, day
treatment, activity therapy
and community residential ser-
son, Bernice Cook and Juanita Bryant.

Maxine Palmour, Frances Pa{mour and
Vera Williams. Not pictured is Martha

vices including supportive liv
mg adaptive group residence,
intensive trammg residence,
respite group residence and in
patient intervention. The latter
program is offered by the
center through Chattooga
Hospital, Wesley noted.
The center's alcohol and
drug abuse section provides
outpatient counseling, group
thera%y, day treatment, outpa
tient detoxification, inpatient
detoxification and 28-day
detoxification programs. ‘‘A
lot of the detox we do is, quite
frankly, a revolving door,”’ he
said. ‘‘People come in and get
dried out.”
Mental retardation services
provides supportive living,
male group residence, com
munity residential living, sup
portive employment and
various types of therapy,
Wesley said.
For all disabilities, the
center offers case management,
24-hour crisis intervention,
psychological testing,
psychiatric and phar
maceutical services, he
continued.
The staff includes 197 full
time equivalent positions, in
cluding 35 administrative per
sonnel. Thirty-five positions
are in Summerville, he said.
Most of the center's funding
comes from the state in the
form of direct grants or
Medicaid, Wesley added.
The state wants to reduce
the population at Northwest
Georgia Regional Hospital
(NW(%RH), Rome, he sai(Fand
eliminate the voluntary detox
ification and 28-day detoxifica
tion center at NGWRH. It also
wants to place all nursing home
residents with mental health
problems and mental retarda
tion patients in the communi
ty, Wesley said, in addition to
increasing services to the
elderly. :
Within two to five years,
the state wants to close the
Georgia Retardation Center
and put all the patient-clients
in tl!n)e community, while in
creasing services to adults and
adolescents.
Ihe tederal government
wants to remove all patients
with mental health problems
from nursing homes, Wesley
said, but at the present time,
“there’s no place for them to
go.”’ Georgia has so far refus
ed to follow the federal dic
tates, he indicated, but ‘‘sooner
or later, we're going to have to
bite that particular bullet.”
RETARDATION
SERVICES
“THE BITTER TRUTH is that this na
tion is not winning the fight against illegal
drugs.’ .
That's the assessment of the chief ex
ecutive officer of the nation's largest school
administrator organization, the National
Association of Secondary School Principals
(NASSP). : ,
“While the use of pot and cocaine may
be down among high school youth, signifi
cant numbers of adults under age 40 — in
cluding physicians, lawyers, truck drivers,
salesmen and many others — indulge in
drugs for ‘recreational purposes,’ " said
Scott Thomson, NASSB executive
director.
* * *
HE CALLED the prohlt-m “disastrous
for American society, ' citing the fact that
60 percent of the world's illegal drug supp
ly is consumed in the United States.
The U. S. faces an annual drug bill of
SIOO-billion for health care, law enforce
ment, and lost productivity, according to
“The American Agenda,”’ a report written

War On Drugs Sought
by former Presidents Carter and Ford.
Drug education programs in school can
help, but cannot solve the problem, said
Thomson, who has called for a society-wide
war against drugs.
S L
“WE FACE full-scale chemical warfare
against American society, not just a few
isolated campaigns,”” he charged. *Wars
are not won easily. Nor are they won
without a full commitment from the public.
The lonely tactic of schools teaching the
dangers of drugs must be replaced with a
comprehensive strategy engaging all in
stitutions in the nation.”
He asked principals to “lobby ag
gresively'' for action by legislators,
business and labor organizations, civic
groups, sports figures, and churches.
“Qur responsibility as citizens living
close to the problem requires us to move
sharply beyond our role as educators to
become citizen-soldiers in the fight against
drugs.”
The Summerville News, Thursday, March 30, 1989
THOMSON CALLED for tougher
penalties for dru% dealers. He cited work
of the National Coalition for Drug Free
School Zones, which is attempting to create
a drug-free perimeter aroundp all schools by
raising penalties for drug use or sale inside
those perimeters.
‘“Penalties must become more severe
and must be enforced by the courts,"
Thomson urged. “While rehabilitation is
legitimate, it clearly fails as the answer in
the deadly evolution of drug abuse.”
AMERICA WILL NOT win this
chemical warfare if the only weapon is the
classroom lesson, according to ¥hon’gsqn
“For a decade now we have heard the
cry for drug-free schools. While that effort
is useful, etfucation clearly does not possess
the muscle to win the contest alone. What
we really need is a drug-free society. All of
us must enlist in that fight for 365 days
a year on all fronts. That is the only way
?0 win this deadly contest of chemical war
are.
