The First Selectman of the Town of Orange hereby permits the Family
Counseling of Greater New Haven, Inc., to begin a one day a week family counseling
service in Orange for Orange residents. The program will start in September
and will use town-provided facilities. There is to be a six-month introductory
period which will be supervised and evaluated. The continuation of the program
beyond the initial six-month period will be based on its effectiveness, its
acceptance, and its financial support. No money will be appropriated by the
town to underwrite the cost of the service at this time.
The First Selectman hereby appoints Father Howard Nash (Chairman), Reverend
Neil Burn, Mrs. Mollie Klein and Dr. Robert White as an ad hoc committee to
work out the immediate details of operation and of financial support. The
committee is to report its findings and recommendations to the First Selectman
for his approval by June 30, 1975. The Committee is authorized to call on
any town agency for advice and information.
The First Selectman will appoint a standing advisory committee of six
to 10 members composed of human services professionals and interested citizens
of Orange. The function of this committee will be: to interpret the counseling
service to the community; to inform the Agency of the needs of the community;
and to deal with the financial matters relating to the service.
