Parsons The Action Center for the Disabled may lose nearly 20 percent of its $115,000 operating budget because the center's contract with Mon- roe County doesn't fit into County Executive Thomas Frey's proposed $605 million budget for 1989. The Action Center, which offers disabled adults recreational opportunities ranging from exercise classes to cultural activities, has de- pended for the past two years on a $20,o6o con- tract with Monroe County's Department of Health for a sizeable portion of what is already a **bam bone&' : M&g0'kecording to Lucy Dechaine, the Genesee ValleV Office of Social Ministry's coordinator of programs for the disabled; . ' In a meeting with the county health direc- tors 'Dr.';Joet ii Nitzkin, earlier this month, Dechaine and Action Center Director Adele Carlson\ learned that their contract was being eliminated because the Action Center does not fit within the department's scope of activities. Funds expended for the contract are also not reimbursable by the state, according to Dr. Nitzkin, who exphuried|that the item was placed in his pbiadget by%ifbrmer administra- tor of humanss*rvices,;wibse office has since beqj elirtunatoJ in reorganization of the county administration. Dechaine agrees that the Action Center never belonged in the health department budget, but argues that the center could legitimately fall under social service or recreational categories. \We should hot be penalized because (county officials) don't know what to do with us|' she said. \What this means is that we could not continue the program as it operates now?' ;CarolHumphrey, principal management an- alyst for the^county budget office, confirmed that the Action Centers contract has not been renewedj and \won't be appearing anywhere else in the county budget\ She added, howev- er, that:Ciayton Osborne, director .. opera- tions for Monroe County, plans to meet with Action Center representatives to help them seek United.Way funding. Based onpast experience, efforts to obtain- United Way fuhdingfc* the Action Center may be a \wasie-'off timej'according 10 Dechaine. Previous efforts have oeen thwarted for two- reasons: the Genesee Valley Office of Social Ministry — currently the umbrella agency for the Action Center — is already a United Way designated donor; and the United Way hastiot requested proposals for funlinl. recreation . agencies or agencies that serve the disaojed sinre before the ActroffC^ in 1981. \How ^ (Osborne) talk about get- ting us United Wiy funding when the county's givjngj$lf&^^ our- 4^^^c^A^din^ n i6ecnai^nas1^ai F^^ng|the|Act|on}:Center has long 'been' fui^g g^t^rpgrams for children with dis- abilfties OTto progr^ with sp¥^cfo^||i|M^i'As,a result, the center, which is at present one of the only local pro-^ Contirined6nPage7 20 Pages Bishop reflects on highlights of 'ad limina' EDITOR'S NOTE: Bishop Matthew, H. Clark returned from his ad limina visit to Rome as the Courier-Journal was going to press Tuesday morning, Oct. 18. Because of the significance, of the ad limina visit, we begin his \Along the Way\ column — a reflection on the trip, written in Rome on\the eve of his departure, Sunday, Oct. 16 —! on this page. The column continues in its regular location at the top of of the \Editorial and Opinion\ page, page 18. By Bishop Matthew H. Clark This is the last evening of our ad limina visit, which began with a dinner meeting at a trattoria near St. Peter's last Monday even- ing. Bishop Hickey and I have just returned from St. Peter's Square, where we joined a celebration in honor of -John Paul II on the 10th anniversary of his election as Bishop of Rome. We had supper earlier \wittffeather Tom Rosica, CSB, who is from St. Ambrose Parish, Rochester. After om-jjieal w^walked the few blocks;.to the squareto^folfj;in the prayers and hymns of the thousands-who 5ad gathered there\. The lights and music of the evening, the size and variety of the crowd, the baimy weather and the event itself all reminded me of the night 10 years earlier when Karol Wojtyla was elected Bishop of Rome and took the name John'Paul II. I was presen: at St. Peter's that night, too. Little did 1 know that 1 would be bishop of Rochester seven months later or that 10 years from that ni jht I would be back in St. Peter's Squire celebrating the pontiff's anniyereary^ *' I have hundreds of memories of the years between those two nights. Even as I write these words, they compete for my attention. But that has been the experience of the week. We did a bt Vyhile we were here,that's for sure. But it is the memories, thoughts, reflections begun or renewed here that! will be the lasting fruits of this journey. Let me share something of these days with you by commenting on the mainicpmppnents of our experiences: our meetings 'jwth John Paul II arid our visits to several agencies of the Roman Curia. I will conclude with some reflections on the everiteflfifiesweeki •\'•\• Meetings with John Pa The first of these was on morning when 38 persons — among themfjfte* 21 bishops present |from New York s^te4fqfr|l the ad limina visit 1— gathered in thejtropetsrj Continued on 'P^» : M^ Around Ha0^me^ck Calendar..
