every year Of these ap proximately 1500 are first of fenders The remainder of them are repeaters A repeater may be an alco holic who drifts in and out of jail on charges of drunkenness She may be a bootlegger thief vagrant forger dope peddler but there was a time when she was a first offender and that was the time when she needed assistance and guidance It may be difficult to change her attitude and way of life af ter she has becomes a repeat er But the first time might have been the last time if she had been released on probation under the supervision of a well- trained woman probation officer if she had been studied as an in dividual and given treatment training and discipline geared to her needs at the reformatory if she had been helped on dis charge to reestablish herself in society She might have been released with the potentials of a good citizen to be happy useful and lawabiding The recommendations made by the Penal Reform for Women Joint Committee deal with phases of probation detention and rehabilitation The commit tee recommend that the number of female probation officers be increased from four to Since the first meeting of the commit tee an additional officer has been appointed for the adult courts in Ottawa and county There Is one female pro bation officer In Hamilton end three in Toronto The remain der of the province Is without such service The committee felt that if fe male probation officers trained for the work could be provided it would permit the courts to release women to them It woutd promote earlier rehabili tation of offenders and reduce institutional needs The largest reformatory for women in Ontario is the Andrew Mercer reformatory Toronto Women years of age and over are sent there to serve terms ranging from 30 days to under two years The committee found that the old Mercer reformatory with its cage doors barred windows and communal dining room and workshops was unsuitable for housing and treat of offenders who were considered capable of early re form The establishment of new institution planned on the cottage system was recommend ed It would include facilities for an enriched program along academic vocational and recre ational lines The committee suggested that a reception wing be established at the Mercer At this center newcomers would be studied and classified by an expert clinical team to determine treatment and training The classification would bo followed by segregation in groups to promote effective and efficient methods of rehabilita tion Alcoholics and drug ad dicts would be housed in a sep arate section equipped with treatment facilities similar to those existing at clinic Toronto Mentally defici ent and mentally retarded of fenders would he segregated They would receive vocational and other training geared to their capabilities Another recommendation by the committee was that a full- time trained female rehabilita tion officer he appointed for Mercer She would help inmates prepare and plan their future In addition they recommended that parolees be placed under the personal supervision of a trained female parole and re habilitation officer officer would undertake groundwork to promote the reception and ac ceptance of the paroles by her family employer and Miss Thomas Reports On Years Activities To Hospital Auxiliary The regular quarterly meeting of the York County Hospital
