Vacation . . . More Is Required for Retarded
Dick Gilmore is 27, per-
sonable, employed and liv-
ing at home with his
widowed mother. During
her vacation with relatives
in California, it seemed only
logical that he spend the 10
days among old friends in
Detroit.
A typical summer separa-
tion? For many it is. But for
retarded citizens living
with their parents it can be
a major — and once im-
possible — undertaking.
Who will provide housing,
aals and recreation for the
es pecial "child" while his
parents are on a much-
needed holiday?
The Association for the
Jewish Retarded, a non-
profit volunteer organiza-
tion, is helping turn the
once-impossible into a
reality. At its Haverim
Home on Evergreen Rd. in
Detroit, the association
provides "respite care" for
retarded persons who re-
quire short-term living ar-
rangements.
For Dick Gilmore, the
stay was filled with godd
times among friends who
live in Haverim Home.
For his mother, Trudy, it
was 10 days of relaxation,
knowing that her son was
in a warm, home-like
Jewish environment.
Respite care also is avail-
able in cases of emergency
until other arrangements
can be made.
by the residents, all of
whom have jobs and take
part in a variety of social ac-
tivities, including camping
and trips.
Respite care is only one
service of the AJR, which
has as its primary goal the
establishment of residential
homes for retarded citizens.
It also lends assistance
to those who are living
independently, offers
counseling to the families
of retarded persons and
presents monthly pro-
grams featuring spe-
cialists in the field of re-
tardation.
Moral support to parents
of the retarded is an impor-
tant part of the AJR's serv-
ice.
The association has em-
barked upon a membership
and public education cam-
paign, in which synagogues,
organizations and in-
terested individuals are in-
vited to join. For informa-
tion, call AJR Director
Joyce Keller, 557-7650.

Fruit Slices
By NORMA BARACH
(Copyright 1978, JTA, Inc.)
On a recent visit to
Chicago, I had a chance to
sample these delicious fruit
slices, made by a cousin. A
word of caution, though:
they do not freeze well.
1 1/2 sticks margarine
1 cup sugar
3 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla
2 cups flour
1 1/2 tsps. baking powder
1 can cherry pie filling with 1/4
tsp. almond extract added
Mix all ingredients together
except for cherry pie filling.
Grease a 9x13-inch pan. Pour
in one-half the batter. Top with
pie filling. Cover with remain-
ing batter. Bake at 350 degrees
for 35-45 minutes. Cool and
slice.
