Block Parent Co-ordinators are looking for more Swift Current residents to sign up for the program.
So far in the City, only five households are registered Block Parents. Being a Block Parent means giving children, youth, and seniors a safe place to be in the community.
Co-ordinator Michele Merkel says it's an easy volunteer program. She says it is one of the least intrusive forms of volunteer work available. All that is required is to show a sign when you are available.
Block Parent application forms can be found at the City of Swift Current, RCMP detachments, or by calling Michele at 773-5150.
