Norwalk mental health center may face shutdown
In Huron County a county Mental Health and Retardation Board subcommittee urges bylaw amendments to unify all county mental health services under one administration. The plan could dissolve the county Mental Health Society as center operator, prompting review of staff and referral issues. The board plans a March 15 special meeting to discuss the changes. A related move seeks to buy the A J Balles building to house all services, with state help covering most costs.

Group denies tests ended by pressure
Leaders of the National Foundation of the March of Dimes deny reports that anti abortion pressure caused the end of support for birth defect diagnosis programs. Dr. Arthur J. Salisbury says the phase-out reflects a long standing policy to limit foundation aid over five years, with continued funding for genetic research. The June 1976 National Right to Life resolution urged discontinuing screening unless it benefits the unborn child.
