ACCA Chapter
Now Being Formed
A chapter of the Alaska Crippl
ed Children’s Association will be
formed in the near future, follow
ing action taken by a newly elect
ed board at a recent meeting.
The Board was created at a meet
ing of interested people held at
the Kodiak Health Center, Oct.
31st. Dr. Bruce Keers presided
and introduced Mrs. William Stone,
who represented Kodiak at the re
cent A.C.C. Association meeting in
Anchorage. Mrs. Stone highlighted
some of the topics of interest dis
cussed, and explained the method
of organization.
The Executive Board elected
from these in attendance were Mrs.
Gretchen Saupe, Mrs. Harriet Ben
son, Mrs. Marianne Sheridan, Mrs.
Elsie Batchelor, Mr. Ken Matth
ews and Mrs. Marian Trent. The
Board of Directors have invited Dr.
Helen Dittman, Ph. D., the Clini
cal Director of the Alaska Crippl
ed Children’s Association, to visit
Kodiak in the near future. Plans
have been made for her to visit
with local hearing and speech
ear-es.
One of the most complek and ex
tensive treatments done by the As
sociation is speech hearing re
habilitation, according to Mrs.
Stone. The percentage of hearing
problems in Alaska is high, she
said. An educational program on
how to prevent accidents and di
seases that cause ear trouble in
children is an important work of
the Association.
The Association has varied fund
raising projects such as the Gilded
!0age and Easter Seals. It is trying
to interest foundations such as
the Rockerfeller Foundation to
sponsor research and to help with
the work in Alaska.
It was also pointed out that
Alaska Crippled Children’s Christ
mas cards, Eskimo cookbook, and
stationery are available in the lo
cal stores, all aiding in the work.
