Lancaster Farming. Saturday. May 30.1970
A View From The Governor's Office
By Gov. Raymond P. Shafer
During the past four years.
Pennsylvania has advanced to
ward a new goal of qualitv caie
for our mentally ill and mental
ly relaided citizens
This goal was embodied in
my Admimsliation s effoils to
pioperly fund the operations
and unpiove conditions at our
State institutions for the men
tally ill and letaided
That goal also was embodied
in Pennsylvania’s unique Com
mumty Mental Health and Men
tal Retardation Act ol 1966
There is cleai evidence avail
able that shows these new ef
forts are having a positive ef
fect For example, Pennsylvania
is one of the few states that
shows a dramatic decrease in
the number of patients—lo,ooo
since 1966 being admitted to
mental health institutions
In the area of mental retar
dation, we have increased sup
port for the institutions by 40
percent. This increase means
that for the first time in his
tory the level of support for the
care of mentally retarded citi
zens is equal to that available
for the mentally ill.
But even with this dramatic
progress, the problems we are
encountering in providing qua
lity care for these citizens who
must have our help are enorm
ous.
That is why I appointed a
Special Task Force more than
six months ago to seek new
approaches in the care and
treatment of our mentally re
tarded Their recommendation
a complete redirection of ser
vices for the mentally retarded
during the 1970 s
This, then, is what I propose
The rapid development of a
State-wide network of small,
community - based residences,
designed to meet the specific
needs of the mentally retarded
whether they be severely multi
handicapped, those in need of
long-teim in-depth care 01

IT's a great feeling to know that yon are the
master of your farmlands . . . that whenyou
treat your soil right, it will treat you right.
Taming is one of the most important factors in
keeping your soil in the highest productive
range. By raising the pH from a level below
6.0 to 6.5 or higher, you can expect to harvest
.8 more tons of alfalfa per acre, with similar
increases for all other forage and cash crops.

those who need ;i supci vised rc
sidential envnonmenl while de
volopmg their potential in a
Inoad spectu.m of community
facilities
These community facilities
will be developed through a
Stale pailnership with non
eovernmenlal sources such as
non-profit organizations
chinch related groups, or pn
vale business Residential ser
vices will be placed in then
proper peispective as only a
part of a total continuum ot
care rather than as an end in
themselves
In every case it will be essen
tial that all construction and all
day-to-day care be carried out
according to strictly designed
and strictly enforced govern
mental standards to insure
quality care and proper use of
our tax dollar
Preliminary studies indicate
that the new plan not-onl> car
provide better care more quick
ly than would be the case if the
Commonwealth continues te
“go it alone,’’ but that the cos*
per day can be the same or low
er than the costs in State insti
tutions.
What we are proposing is in
deed revolutionary, in that it
has the capability of reducing
the resident population at exist
ing institutions, bringing resi
dential care into the communi
ty where it belongs, coordina
ting residential care with the
full range of community ser
vices, and providing the entire
program much faster and more
economically than the State
Government could do on its
own.
With this new approach we
can cut through bureaucracy
and red tape, and with the same
swift, courageous strokes we
can also cut through heartbreak
and despair
