As a result, the centre now offers its 70 volunteers a special training session on how to (Continued from page 1) province, the figure was much lower. About 36% of callers Ontarioâ€"wide were distressed over interpersonal problems. Of those calls, almost 70% to the Oakville distress lines were due to loneliness. Across the province, the figure was again much lower â€" about 42%. Beveridge says the Distress Centre Oakville has also received an increase in calls in the past two to three years from people who are angry about things going on in their lives. Centre staffed by caring group of voluntee Raise the Flag Day had its genesis in the popular "Proud to Be Canadian" Canada 125 celebration of two years ago in which giant flags signed by school children across the country were flown on July 1. Saturday also marked the kickâ€"off to the Celebrate Canada Challenge which runs through July 1st. For this, all you have to do is adorn your home or business with a Canadian flag and register that fact through the Oakville by those in attendance. The Town‘s flag will be sent to Ottawa where it will fly on Canada Day, July 1st. (Continued from page 1) Last year, volunteers also hanâ€" dled calls from suicidal people and those who phoned because of health concerns, sexual problems, alcohol or drug problems, or abuse. Of the abuse calls, 66% involved physical abuse compared to about 23% provinceâ€"wide. "Sometimes with physical abuse, it takes a lot of courage to do someâ€" thing about it." Beveridge says the average length of calls to the distress lines handle clients who are angry, she says. However, Beveridge says some of those calls in Oakville could be from the same people who may have phoned several times before allowing distress centre volunteers to refer them for help. Lincoln â€" who checked for Phone Alone messages Sunday â€" said there had been at least 20 calls.
