Well, today I'm in Owen Sound touring around Huron, Bruce and Grey counties for RISE for Youth...as of today I've been to:
- Women's Shelter, Goderich
- Women Today of Huron, Goderich
- Bluewater Youth Centre, Goderich
- OPP, Goderich
- Big Brothers/Big Sisters, Kincardine
- Women's House, Kincardine
- Saugeen Native Drug and Alcohol Addiction Centre, Saugeen
Sigh.
Tomorrow I hit the women's shelter, CHOICES (addictions agency), Keystone (child and youth agency), Grey Bruce Sexual Assault Centre in Owen Sound and Ontario Works and Public Health Unit in Walkerton.
Then I will sleep long time.
So far, so good.
The most memorable stop? Bluewater Youth Centre...the jail for kids...seriously. I had to get clearence to get into the 'compound'. The security guard at the front had one arm and a claw arm. I kept wondering if one of the kids in the detention centre ripped it off trying to escape (jk). But, all in all very nice people.
Tomorrow is another day.
