Day care proposal for mentally retarded children voiced
Sullivan County chapter of the Association for the Help of Retarded Children seeks a county and state funded day care training center for mentally retarded children with limited schooling. Nine schools in the county offer classes only to sixth grade, plus a need for vocational training. The chapter estimates three percent of the county population, about 1,358 people, are retarded, though many remain uncounted.
