Ms. Schopler stated that the group needed to know how extensive the Commissioners viewed the Task Force's function, and that the Task Force needed some direction.from_ the Commissioners before proceeding. She stated that the group had reviewed Eric Dashman's proposal and after discussion, was in favor of development of this kind of resource in the Comm}xnity, however, there was a question about hoW;high a priority this kind of development should be given. She stated that the Task Force sees the needs of the County as being in the area of finding shelter and emergency care for the youth. Mr. Dashman's proposal did speak to .this need in one area, however, he only spoke of short term care and far only six to eight kids. The Task Force did have questions about other parts of the pro- posal and did not want this to be a substitute for doing anything else with the youth needs in the County. The Task Force suggested that Mr. Dashman be appointed as a member of the Xouth Service Needs Task Force so that he could be directly related to the needs of the County and have imput into the development of this plan. Ms. Schopler asked the Beard to review and discuss directions in regard to the three questions listed at the end of the interim report: 1. How extensive is the function of this task force and how active should it be?
