NEW WELFARE
A
A new approach to public welfarethat of adding hope to help characterized the 1968 Fiscal Year in the State Department of Family and Children Services
To the doleoriented philosophy of the past was added the new concept of positive action to break the welfare cycle by solving the problems which create welfare needs This new emphasis embraces five interrelated steps to rehabilitate adults and educate and motivate children They are
1 FEED THE HUNGRY
The number of counties with permanent food programs or commitments for them was increased from 90 to 158 as the result of the Departments War on Hunger
2 PREVENT UNWANTED BIRTHS
The Departments first Family Planning Consultant was employed and vigorous steps taken to implement the 1968 Family Planning Act which gave it and the Department of Public Health for the first time general authority to provide birth control assistance to all citizens requesting it
3 TRAIN UNEMPLOYED FOR JOBS
Work training projects were conducted in Chatham Muscogee and Richmond Counties and in conjunction with the State Labor Department an Interdepartmental Task Force was established to plan and implement the National Work Incentive Program to train and find jobs for ablebodied welfare mothers and their teenage children who have dropped out of school
4 TREAT SICK AND HANDICAPPED
The Department drafted the Plan approved by the Department of Health Education and Welfare for Georgias participation in the Medicaid Title XIX Program and initiated certification of welfare recipients who are sick and handicapped to the Department of Public Health for payment of their hospital doctor drug Xray laboratory and nursing home bills
5 EDUCATE DEPRIVED CHILDREN
Through the State Office of Economic Opportunity administered by the Department special emphasis was given to Head Start Upward Bound and other catchup programs for the culturallydeprived child and plans were made to incorporate this concept in day care arrangements for the children of mothers required to

work under the Work Incentive Program A Statewide System of five Regional Youth Development Centers was opened with the sixth nearing completion and a grant program of assistance to Metropolitan Area Youth Development Centers initiated to get children in trouble out of common jails Construction was begun on a major new facility to provide for the rehabilitation and vocatonal training of delinquent girls For the first time in history child welfare services were made available in all counties including those which refused to finance child welfare programs and programs for adoptions care for unwed mothers protective ser vices for abused and neglected children and licensing of day care centers were expanded significantly
The attention given to the new welfare approach did not subordinate the discharge of the Departments responsibility to meet the immediate needs of welfare clients through money payments
Grants were increased twice to the aged blind and disabled and once to families with dependent children Maximum monthly checks for adults were raised from 75 to 82 and for families from 144 to 154 For the first time a transportation allowance was made to enable needy adults to participate in the Medicaid and food programs
As of June 30 1968 financial assistance was being given to 236269 needy persons including 88530 persons over the age of 65 who are too old to work 3156 who are blind and cannot see to work 29428 who are totally and permanently disabled and too sick to work and 88512 children in school who are too young to work The remaining 26643 are mothers most of whom have preschoolage children and are the only ablebodied persons on Georgias public assistance rolls Most of those whose children are above the age of three years are working and where their wages fall below the welfare standard are receiving supplementary grants as required by the Federal courts
Georgia has turned a corner in its approach to welfare and given the resources and the authority it is the intention of the Department of Family and Children Services to put the State in a position of national leadership in this new approach

Payments at Maximum Family Level
Providing money payments to people eligible for assistance in these categories is the largest undertaking of the Department Benefits totaling 11766556817 were paid during the 12month period
Maximum grants in adult categories were increased twicefrom
75 to 82 and an allowance for transportation was given for the first time
Maximum grants to families with dependent children were increased oncefrom 144 to 154
All grants were adjusted during the year The number of applications for financial assistance under the four Public Assistance Programs increased 25 per cent For the first time the number of dependent children helped equalled the number of aged people served These two groups accounted for 86 per cent of the individuals receiving financial grants Almost 90 per cent of those receiving money payments were too old too young or too sick to work and provide for themselves
A primary goal of Fiscal 1968 was to provide food for hungry Georgians The Departments War on Hunger was declared on July 31 and highlighted by the Conference on Feeding Hungry Georgians on September 13 By the end of the year permanent food programs had been initiated or commitments for them made in all but one of Georgias 159 counties
Fortythree counties were operating Food Stamp Programs Thirtytwo were in the process of implementing this program within the early months of the next fiscal year Two were approved and awaiting funding Three were distributing commodities pending approval for Food Stamp Programs
Commodity Distribution Programs were in operation in the remaining counties except Troup where county officials refused to have a food program of any description In July 1967 158796 people were participating in one of the two programs In June 1968 186246 people were being served by the two programsan increase of 173 per cent Every family participating in the Food Stamp Program receives bonus food coupons when it makes its purchase The value of the bonus coupons received depends on the size of the household and the combined income of its members This year bonus coupons added 2441708 to the dollars spent for food by lowincome households Under the Commodity Distribution Program needy Georgians received 43193506 pounds of foodstuffs with a wholesale value of 8111183
The shift in emphasis from the dole to the solving of the problems causing welfare dependency demands increased social services The simplification of financial eligibility determination procedures has been accelerated An experimental project conducted during the year shows that simplifying procedures will free caseworkers time for delivery of more social services
Medical services were expanded under Title XIX of the Social Security Act through a program known as Medicaid under which doctor drug Xray laboratory and nursing home bills are paid Initially only public assistance recipients will be served and minimum welfare grants were reduced to 1 to insure help for a maximum number of needy Georgians The program was planned by the Department of Family and Children Services which certifies those eligible for its benefits It was initiated October 1 and is administered by the Department of Public Health
Development and implementation of a Family Planning Program was begun The Department employed its first Family Planning Consultant and she has worked closely with the Department of Public Health to establish a working program of birth control services available to all who request them as authorized by the 1968 Session of the General Assembly It will be expanded progressively until it provides a full range of medical care and services for the medically indigent in Georgia by
1975 A model referral and data collection system was perfected in pilot test counties A series of statewide oneday conferences and countylevel meetings were held to brief caseworkers in the techniques of counseling and referring those wishing family planning services Medical aspects of the program are carried out by the Department of Public Health through birth control clinics in 154 counties
Work training projects in Chatham Muscogee and Richmond Counties offered basic education high school equivalency courses job training for varied occupations and supportive social services to welfare recipients and other needy parents Employment of recipients either reduced or removed their dependency upon public assistance grants
Fair hearing procedures to protect the rights of applicants and recipients were strengthened The Hearing Officer was authorized for the first time to make retroactive payments to applicants whose cases were closed in error
Statewide uniformity was achieved through supervision of county programs by the Field Social Services Section distribution of policy statements through County Letters by the Standards and Procedures Section monitoring of county programs by the Quality Control Section and final determination of physical and mental incapacity by the Medical Eligibility Section
The Emergency Welfare Services Program ensured operational readiness of a comprehensive overall state plan designed to meet community needs in the event of war emergency or natural disaster
To strengthen the casework skills necessary to offer social services to help the needy improve their lot in life 54 orientation and training workshops for 1130 local caseworkers and social workers were planned and conducted by the Staff Development Section The Summer Trainee Program encouraged college students to consider social work as a career The Section supported State and local administrative staff in their recruitment orientation and inservice training activities
The Confederate Soldiers Home has been the responsibility of the Department since 1937 In March 1968 the A G Rhodes Home Inc of Atlanta was designated the Confederate Soldiers Home and the four widows receiving care were transferred there At the end of the year there were 48 additional widows of Confederate soldiers living in Georgia and receiving State pensions who are eligible for admission to the Home
The objective of the Division for Children and Youth is to strengthen and maintain family life through a social services program for children and families For the first time in Georgia history Child Welfare Services were available in every county including three counties which do not have an established program The Child Welfare Program helped 28599 children an increase of more than 1000 over last year
The very core of the Child Welfare Program Foster Home Care Services moved children from unsuitable environments into homes where they received thoughtful care and attention As a result of local recruitment drives the number of approved foster homes more than doubled during the past six years However the need for homes has increased at a faster rate The demand for more home placements was recognized by the Division and plans were developed to meet traditional and more specialized needs
Children exposed to neglect abuse or exploitation were helped by the Protective Services Program Caseworkers through counseling of parents and use of selected community resources frequently were able to help parents improve the home environment If this were not possible arrangements were often made to place the child in the home of relatives or in a foster home or childcare institution When these efforts failed a petition was filed with the proper court requesting removal of the neglected child from the home
The most significant advancement in Adoption Services was the placement of 89 children under one month of age Last year only 18 children in this age group were placed Early adoption has appeared best for the child and adoptive parents and has reduced time spent in foster boarding homes and financial expense to the Department Of the 700 children placed 204 were under three months of age and 332 were between three months and six months of age Although the majority of children placed were infants ages ranged to twelve years The average waiting period for couples applying for adoption has been cut to the shortest time in the Departments history 79 monthsmore than a months improvement over nature Progress in early placement and shorter waiting periods has led to an exciting innovation direct placement of infants from hospital to adoptive homes
More unmarried mothers are requesting the Departments help Services to Unmarried Mothers included counseling confidential care during pregnancy and planning for the future of the mother and baby

Juvenile detention services on a regional basis a goal set five years ago became a reality Five of the six Regional Youth Development Centers were in full operation by the end of the year with the sixth scheduled to open in late summer 1968 Operation began in Albany in June 1967 in Waycross October 1967 in Sandersville November 1967 in Rome November 1967 and in Augusta March 1968 The Centers were established to provide a diagnostic program and a plan of care for each child committed by the juvenile courts to the Division
for Children and Youth In the short time they have been open the Centers have helped more than 1000 children When diagnostic services indicated care at home staff efforts in cooperation with the local juvenile courts court services workers and local County Departments have returned many of these children to their communities under supervision To complete the statewide system the Department provided financial assistance under contractual agreement to seven urban counties furnishing detention services within the urban and nearby counties
The State Youth Development Centers purpose is the return of the child to the community as a creative and useful member of society Staff members helped disturbed children overcome the emotional problems brought with them to the Centers Emphasis was placed on the consolidation and coordination of staff efforts the team approach for developing and implementing the individual plans of treatment
Construction of the Macon Center began in February 1968 and completion is scheduled in October 1969 Built to fill the needs of the older delinquent girl the Center will stress vocational training treatment of emotional problems and academic training to round out the individual programs needed to meet the older childs needs
The Atlanta Center for girls continued to make strides toward the refinement of treatment programs Staff members worked individually with girls and also made good use of group therapy in the treatment process
The Augusta Center for younger boys and girls added professional staff members with a broad knowledge of children and their problems The professional staff by working with houseparents and counseling the children directly helped the children adjust to their surroundings
The Milledgeville Center for older boys established an offcampus work program Along with an excellent vocational education program this plan has helped boys prepare for life after leaving the Center A special study conducted by the George Peabody College Division of Surveys and Field Services has led to a better understanding of emotional problems affecting learning and has identified problem areas in the Centers program The staff has undertaken the necessary improvements A new fifteenbed infirmary was opened to take care of medical and dental emergencies
The Division of Business Administration is held accountable for all funds received and expended by the Department The Division gave increased support to the other Divisions through various cost projections for budgeting purposes and sound business management activities The rising number of people served demanded an expansion of program ser vices to meet normal growth and the requirements of new Federal regulations
The Accounting Section and the Data Processing Section have handled the growing accounting operations through the application of electronic data processing systems The Divisions Field Staff supervised the fiscal aspects of programs supported by State and Federal funds and administered by the County Departments
The Divisions efficiency was recognized by the Social Security Administration when the Georgia Department of Family and Children Services was cited first among 38 State Departments in accuracy and timeliness in the implementation of the Supplementary Medical Insurance BuyIn Program This insurance program involves more than 100000 needy people aged 65 and over in Georgia
Planning was initiated for a Total Information System utilizing electronic data processing techniques which will furnish immediate access to consolidated information on all recipients
A mechanized payroll system with deductions figured by computer was installed The planning for changing from the manual system to an electronic data processing system was completed and the new system will begin operation in July 1968 The smooth transfer of the fiscal system for the Medicaid Program to the Department of Public Health was achieved with no delay in vendor payments to nursing homes
The Staff Services Section procured equipment facilities and supplies In addition this Section maintained departmental records processed all mail and provided duplicating and microfilming services
A Model for Estimating Hunger in Georgia The Food Stamp Program in Georgia and Changes in the Personality Adjustment and Intellectual Functioning of Students in the Augusta Youth Development Center were the principal research studies undertaken this year by the Division of Research and Statistics Working through its two sections the Division collected analyzed and reported data pertinent to the achievement of departmental goals The Research Section designed and carried out projects intended to provide insight into the programs of the various divisions and the problems faced by the Department of Family and Children Services The Statistics Section was responsible for preparing the complex statistical reports required by Federal and State authorities and collaborated with the Research Section on the statistical aspects of research reporting
The need for an organized effort toward greater public understanding of the Departments programs prompted the creation of the Community Development Unit The Unit promoted the food programs and the foster home program directed the activities of the Georgia Youth Council and interpreted the Departments programs to interested civic and professional groups throughout the State
The Georgia Factory for the Blind reported a profitable year for the fourth time since its organization in 1949 The three branches employed 113 blind people with a degree of blindness ranging from industrial to total They earned higher salaries this year than ever before The average weekly wage increased significantly over last year from 4038 to 4414 in the Atlanta branch from 4084 to 4351 in the Griffin branch and from 5179 to 5264 in the Bainbridge branch The major products were brooms mops mattresses and highway stakes Contracts were also accepted for miscellaneous tasks such as the packaging assembling and sorting of products

HELP FOR THE HUNGRY
FOOD PROGRAMS
Even in our affluent society there is everincreasing evidence of serious problems of hunger and malnutrition To feed hungry Georgians has been a primary goal of the Department of Family and Children Services The Department certifies the eligibility of lowincome households to participate in one of the two food programs administered by the U S Department of Agriculture The Food Stamp Program gives eligible households the opportunity to increase the purchasing power of the portion of the income used to purchase food The eligible households purchase food coupons and in addition receive bonus coupons The value of the bonus coupons each household receives is determined by the size of the household in relation to its income The food coupons are used at authorized local retail grocery stores for the purchase of food The Commodity Distribution Program distributes directly to eligible households food items selected to supplement and enrich the diets of the members Food products distributed include split peas canned chopped meat dehydrated potatoes grape juice butter margarine rice com meal grits flour dried milk shortening dried beans rolled oats rolled wheat peanut butter and raisins

HOPE THROUGH COUNSELING AND JOB TRAINING
WORK TRAINING
Meaningful and dignified employment for public assistance clients moves them off welfare rolls and onto payrolls The Department operated Federally financed work training projects for welfare clients and other needy parents in Chatham Muscogee and Richmond Counties Designed to offer to the functionally illiterate the social services training and skills necessary to secure and maintain suitable employment programs ranged from basic education to advanced instruction in highly skilled occupations such as drafting nursing and laboratory technology Monthly maintenance grants to the trainee and dependents and workrelated expenses were paid from project funds Supportive services offered each family included child care programs referral to related service agencies home management and family planning While public assistance grants to participants were terminated or substantially reduced the real value of the program is reflected in the development of selfsufficiency selfesteem and involvement in community life
FAMILY PLANNING
Family planning services are offered without charge to all persons who seek help The 1966 Family Planning Services Act as amended in 1968 directs the Department of Family and Children Services and the Department of Public Health to provide counseling and interviews with trained personnel concerning family planning methods to distribute literature related to birth control and infertility and to make referrals to licensed physicians for consultation and prescriptions for the purpose of birth control This Departments primary responsibilities are the counseling and referral of persons desiring family planning services to the Health Department

HOPE THROUGH A SECURE CHILDHOOD

HOPE THROUGH A BETTER HOME LIFE
PROTECTIVE SERVICES
Most children are members of families where parents successfully fulfill the obligations of parenthood However there are situations where the interest of the child is not respected and intervention is required to shield him from physical and emotional impairment Protective Services is the specialized child welfare program for the protection of children from neglect exploitation or abuse by parents or caretakers This assignment requires child welfare workers to determine the childs needs to draft an appropriate plan of action and to coordinate the services of public and private agencies necessary to effect the plan
FOSTER HOME CARE
The development of welladjusted children is the objective of the Foster Care Program Children experience family living and receive the individual care and attention they need while living apart from their families Although separation from parents and family is severe removal from the home may be the only recourse when a childs physical and emotional needs are not met by his family Foster home families care for neglected children children whose families are disrupted because of desertion illness death divorce or separation of parents unmarried mothers babies awaiting adoption and children with emotional and physical handicaps

The true test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much it is whether we provide enough for those who have too little

the spark adding hope to help
In a rural black slum in Georgia a man said something to me which made a profound impression on my mind and heart He said
What these people need is some pride But they aint got nothing to be proud of and they aint got no hope of ever gittin anything to be proud of
And you know Mister when folks aint got no hope they got less than
nothing
Believing that we in the Department of Family and Children Services are
satisfied that if our efforts to develop and implement a new approach to welfare achieve no more than to inspire one small spark of hope in the hearts of Georgias forgotten citizens who have lost all hope then everything we have done everything we have tried and every dollar we have spent will have been justified and worthwhile
The record presented in this Report of what we have done toward that end during the 1969 Fiscal Year is proof that we have made sound and steady progress of which all Georgians can be proud
The objective toward which we have worked is the reduction and ultimate elimination of poverty in Georgia The fact that that same objective now has been adopted nationally by the Nixon Administration is further proof of the correctness of what is being done here at home
Because efforts in this direction in the past sometimes have been thwarted by mistaken notions of the role of welfare in todays world I set a personal goal of telling Georgias welfare story in all Georgia counties as a part of this Departments Community Development Program Thus getting the facts about welfare programs and problems to the taxpaying public is paying big dividends in greater public understanding of the magnitude of the need and the inadequacy of resources for meeting it
Convinced that any resolution of our worsening social and welfare situation must be founded upon freeing ourselves from the shackles of past failures we have advocated locally and nationally that educational health welfare correctional and other agencies of government dealing with these problems be given the latitude authority and resources to begin solving them Experience has taught us that welfare checks alone will not do the job that we must have money to provide services to solve the multiple social problems creating and perpetuating dependency as well as money to send out welfare checks to pay for human needs We also learned that we cannot force all people with the same problems into the same mold but we must have flexibility to deal with them as individuals
Accordingly we have acted on five premises in developing Georgias new problemsolving approach to welfare problems and we are certain that adequately financed and fully implemented they can reverse the present

welfare trend and over the course of a generation break the welfare chain and end hardcore poverty These fundamental goals are
I Feed the hungry
II Prevent unwanted births
III Teach the illiterate to read and write and give the untrained skills that will bring them employment at a living wage
IV Cure the sick and rehabilitate the handicapped
V Motivate deprived children by teaching them about their own worth and capacity as individuals and about the rewards of work study and ambition
We are proud of our success in achieving several aspects of these goals during the past year The War on Hunger is being won The Medicaid Program has been initiated and is working well without any of the abuses that have occurred in some other states We have gotten children in trouble out of common jails We have begun a multifaceted Work Incentive Program to get those few ablebodied persons on the welfare rolls mothers and their teenage children who have dropped out of schooltrained and meaningfully employed We are enlisting the aid of volunteers in the solution of welfare problems are hiring some welfare clients to help us help others of the poverty group and are implementing a program of legal services which will include establishing the paternity of illegitimate children And we have been able on our own steam to make a significant beginning toward solving the problem of unwanted births
While there is no question that we must have more funds to meet the immediate needs of the less fortunate we have not allowed ourselves to become preoccupied with money and who does or does not get it Our major concern has been and will continue to be more effective services to help those on the welfare rolls who can be rehabilitated to become selfrespecting selfsupporting citizens and to help children overcome physical educational and cultural deprivation so that they can grow up to be better more productive adults than their parents and take their rightful place in society
We can do what we have set out to dohalt and reverse the welfare trend But we must have the understanding and help of elected officials professional social workers and taxpayers who are willing to join us in recognizing that the concept of the dole has been a total failure and in working for total reform
More and more people are becoming aware of that and are opening their eyes to the fact that most poor people are not poor because they will not work but because of human circumstances over which they have no controlthat they are poor because they never have had a chance because they are sick disabled or old because they never had an opportunity for education or learning employable skills because they are retarded or because they are children in poor families who without help will face a future that is as hopeless as the present of their parents
There is no doubt in my mind that we turned the corner in our approach to welfare in Georgia during the 1969 Fiscal Year
Neither is there any doubt in my heart that we are striking that spark of hope which will result in the ultimate elimination of hardcore poverty in Georgia for all time to come

Change is the watchword in welfare today More people are thinking and talking more seriously about welfare programs and problems than ever in the 35year history of welfare
With a goal of adding hope to help the Department of Family and Children Services has turned the corner in its approach to welfare The 1969 Fiscal Year has been one of seeking answers to the problems causing welfare dependency while improving means of helping 729533 needy Georgians through programs of financial assistance and social services An unprecedented total of 313300 persons received 12072819076 in financial aid under the four federal categories of public assistanceAid to the Aged Blind Permanently and Totally Disabled and Families with Dependent Children
Georgia welfare rolls followed the national trend and continued to climbincreasing from 236269 persons in June 1968 to 285743 persons in June 1969 Benefits payments also increased from 9469021 to 10633291 during the same 12month period
The primary emphasis of the Department in Fiscal 1969 was on implementation of the 1967 Amendments to the Social Security Act requiring many new improved and expanded rehabilitative benefits and service programs effective July 1 1969
A 55million yearly increase in payments has been planned and funded by the Georgia General Assembly for the States 41830 families with dependent children The maximum family grant will be raised from 154 to 164 per month in July 1969 to meet the mandate of Congress for a costofliving increase in benefits for AFDC families Shelter standards will be raised also on that date to give some relief to aged blind and disabled recipients in the acute housing problem they and others on welfare are experiencing
An earned income exemption will be put into effect to give welfare mothers and their children an incentive to work Under the new formula children under the age of 14 or who are in school may keep all they earn and the family may retain the first 30 and onethird of the remainder of its

income without having its monthly welfare grant reduced This financial incentive to work will encourage ablebodied welfare recipients to work toward fulltime gainful employment and for the first time will get welfare programs away from the muchcriticized federal requirements that family grants be reduced dollarfordollar by earnings Over and above that the amount of income any welfare recipient in the aged blind or disabled categories can receive from any source without affecting the total of his monthly check has been increased from 4 to 5 per month
The Work Incentive WIN Program has been planned for implementation in July 1969 by the Department of Family and Children Services and the Department of Labor in the first 14 Georgia counties designated by the U S Secretary of Labor to come under it Setting economic independence as the goal for welfare mothers and their teenage children who have dropped out of school the WIN Program will prepare them to enter and remain in the labor force The Welfare Department will refer eligible AFDC mothers and teenagers to the program and offer meaningful social services to help them progress to full selfsupport The Department of Labor will provide employment and training services to those referred to it
Adequate child care arrangements satisfactory to WIN mothers must be made for their children as a condition precedent to requiring their participation in the Program This provision of specialized child care in day care centers and family day care homes will help deprived AFDC children through educational and recreational opportunities medical and dental services nutritious meals and cultural experiences Children may also receive care in their own homes
Projects are scheduled to operate in Atlanta with a capacity for 400 welfare recipients in Fulton County Augusta for 200 in Burke Columbia Jefferson McDuffie and Richmond Counties Columbus for 200 in Chattahoochee Harris Marion Muscogee and Talbot Counties Macon for 200 in Bibb and Houston Counties and Savannah for 200 in Chatham County Special work projects for an additional 240 eligible welfare

Major emphasis was given the Family Planning Program during Fiscal 1969 It was expanded to provide some degree of assistance even in the 22 counties without Family Planning Clinics Those counties without clinics or free birth control services were encouraged by State Staff Members of the Department of Family and Children Services the Department of Public Health and the State Office of Economic Opportunity to begin them Caseworkers in the County Welfare Departments are being trained in family planning counseling techniques and a goal of at least one conference with each person of childbearing age on the welfare rolls was set for the 1969 Calendar Year
A Volunteer Services Program to enlist the aid of all interested and concerned Georgia citizens in solving the problems of welfare dependency is being organized in all counties Volunteers will participate actively in the Departments social services programs Each County Welfare Department will offer services in three major areas of need Transportation of welfare clients to receive medical services under the Medicaid Program and to get food help under the Food Stamp or the Commodity Distribution Program home counseling in nutrition money management home management personal hygiene and grooming and family planning and tutorial services for dependent children who need catchup help in school subjects Other services will be added as needed by individualcounties
Permanent food programs in 158 of Georgias counties have assured the needy free food help through either the Food Stamp or the Commodity Distribution Program in all but Troup County The War on Hunger is almost won but efforts will not be slackened until all persons in poverty have adequate diets
Georgia counties have demonstrated a preference for the Food Stamp Program Eighty counties operate Food Stamp Programs and 78 have Commodity Distribution Programs Of the 78 Commodity Distribution

PEOPLE IN PUBLIC ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS BY TYPE
Program counties 13 have requested or been approved for a switch to Food Stamps At the beginning of the year 43 counties operated Food Stamp Programs and 115 had Commodity Programs
An increased number of needy individuals are taking advantage of these food programs Participation rose from 209193 persons in July 1968 to 247418 in June 1969 This year bonus Food Stamps added 4849915 to the income of lowincome families Foodstuffs totaling 71439157 pounds with a wholesale value of 16431006 were distributed in the Commodity Program
The need for an organized effort to train students working toward baccalaureate degrees to move directly into welfare jobs and to encourage colleges to develop practical social work training courses led to the establishment of undergraduate student training units in County Departments of Family and Children Services throughout Georgia The State Director set a Department goal of training units in all counties where colleges are located
To help more Georgians move off welfare rolls and onto payrolls the Department began employing nondegree casework aides in January 1969 and plans were developed to begin employing welfare clients in welfare jobs in July 1969 The position of Community Worker was created and Home Services Aide activated to offer the hardcore poor jobs with builtin career advancement opportunities With the educational and experiential requirements ranging from ability to read and write to completion of two years of college or work experience in a field related to social work the three positions offer a social work career ladder by which employees in these positions can rise to full professional status in the social work field through experience inservice training and Department scholarships for higher education

Planning is under way for a Legal Services Program to give free legal assistance to welfare clients desiring to appeal adverse decisions concerning their cases to seek to establish paternity of children born out of wedlock to obtain court orders for their support by their natural fathers and to bring to justice those few individuals who obtain welfare assistance through fraudulent applications and other misrepresentations
Health programs are essential services for those in the poverty group Under the Medicaid Program the Department of Family and Children Services certifies eligible welfare clients to the Department of Public Health to have their hospital doctor drug nursing home Xray and laboratory bills paid The Intermediate Care Program planned by the Welfare Department and transferred to the Department of Public Health by special permission of the U S Secretary of Health Education and Welfare offers a comfortable place to live to aged and disabled adults who do not require skilled nursing home care but do need someone to look after them
At the direction of the HEW Secretary a new procedure for determining eligibility for welfare assistance is being pretested in 11 Georgia counties The new application method is called the Simplified System for Determining Eligibility and is being tested nationwide If found to be workable by the Secretary it will be put into regular use next year in all 50 states Georgias experience has been that no greater margin of error has been found in

The Division of Social Administration administers and coordinates programs of financial assistance and social services through administrative supervision and consultation to counties through its Field Social Services Medical Eligibility and Quality Control Sections and its Food Work Training Family Planning Volunteer and Subprofessional Services Standards and Procedures Emergency Welfare Services and Appeals and Fair Hearings Offices
The emotional physical educational and cultural growth of children into healthy selfsufficient adults is a key to breaking the welfare cycle Toward this end the Departments Division for Children and Youth has Child Welfare Agreements signed with all but one county in Georgia and all counties now have child welfare services available for the first time The Child Welfare Program encompasses the four broad areas of adoption services foster home care assistance to unwed mothers and protective services for children who are neglected or abused Its goal is a wholesome safe home life for each child in Georgia in his own home when possible or in a substitute home when necessary
The Child Welfare Program reached 29345 children in Georgia in Fiscal 1969 doubling the number served when the program was inaugurated five years ago
Lonely troubled uprooted children are cared for by foster parents in foster homes Children need such care for many reasons Because of the illness marital problems desertion or death of natural parents because of family problems and responsibilities so overwhelming that natural parents are unable to provide adequate acceptable care because children are abandoned or abused There are 1331 approved foster homes in Georgia However the need for homes continues to increase faster than homes are approved
For the first time a State allowance for clothing for foster children is being paid and the State is preparing to implement the new program of Foster Care for AFDC Children under which Federal funds will be available for the first time to remove neglected children from inadequate and unwholesome welfare homes and to place them in proper foster homes
Many children in active Child Welfare cases are living in their own homes and receiving care under the Protective Services Program Through counseling and the aid of community resources child welfare workers assist parents to improve home conditions and solve the problems which have caused them to neglect abuse or exploit their children
Casework and placement services and financial aid brought more than 300 unwed mothers to the Department during Fiscal 1969 An unwed mother receives confidential care during pregnancy which includes maternity or foster home placement and counseling to develop the best plan for the future of her and her baby The State maximum payment for maternity home care has been increased from 450 to 525 with the State contributing up to 450 of that amount
The Adoption Program has advanced significantly The number of applications accepted has tripled and the number of placements doubled in the five years of the program Children placed under one month of age increased from 18 in Fiscal 1967 to 89 in Fiscal 1968 and 191 in Fiscal

Approximately 29000 Georgia children in day care centers and family day care homes are protected by the counseling of child care personnel and the licensing and evaluating of such centers and homes by the Departments Licensing Section There are 695 licensed day care centers in the State and the number continues to rise During the year the Licensing Section revised minimum requirements for day care centers and family day care homes with the assistance of a Day Care Advisory Committee composed of professional and lay persons and improved the quality of care given to children by planning and conducting a fiveday workshop for the child care personnel working in centers throughout the State
The Court Services Section has met the everincreasing demands for the care of Georgias children on probation and those who need aftercare services following release from one of the Youth Development Centers
The total number of children served by the Section in Fiscal 1969 was 6608

The Division of Business Administration carries the responsibility for all fiscal activities of the State and County Departments A new accounting system was developed which is compatible with the complex requirements of the various funds administered by the Department as well as those of the State Department of Audits and the State Budget Bureau The Departments payroll was converted to a fully computerized system at the beginning of the year
Fiscal and reporting procedures were developed for the Work Incentive WIN Program AFDC Foster Care Program and other programs required by the 1967 Amendments to the Social Security Act The unprecedented growth of ongoing programs and the implementation of new procedures generated an enormous increase in the record keeping and reporting work loads in the Accounting Data Processing and Statistics Sections
A unique modular programming system for preparing several required federal statistical reports completed by the Data Processing Section minimizes effort in report preparation and in program modification when changes are required

The Staff Services Section worked with the State Director Division Directors State Building Authority and architects in allocating space and preparing specifications for necessary alterations for 20000 square feet of additional space in the State Office Building and the new TrinityWashington Building Work was begun on a new system for handling maintenance and service agreements covering office equipment which is being designed to conform to newly prescribed regulations of the State Purchasing Department as well as to simplify control of this vital function
A new Division of Personnel and Staff Development was created at the beginning of the 1969 Fiscal Year from the Personnel Office and the Staff Development Section of the Division of Social Administration The Personnel Section developed and put into operation in County Departments three subprofessional classes Casework Aide Home Services Aide and Community Worker The Staff Development Section worked with colleges and County Departments to establish student social work training units The Section conducted social work staff orientation and development workshops and planned and conducted the first workshops for clerical workers in County Departments over the State It also held the first of a continuing series of Annual Workshops for County Directors
The Division of Research and Publications conducts research projects to give the Department more adequate and realistic statistical bases for its programs Projects this year include two studies The AFDC Family in Georgia and Children in Foster Home Care The Division also began designing and conducting opinion surveys to determine attitudes of welfare recipients and community leaders toward the Welfare System in general and the Georgia program in particular
The Georgia Factories for the Blind at Atlanta Bainbridge and Griffin provide employment for the visually handicapped They produce mattresses for commercial outlets and federal installations brooms and mops sold commercially and by Georgia Lions Clubs for the benefit of the needy blind of all ages and highway stakes used by the State Highway Department The Factories also have contracts to package Georgia license plates and dietetic kits used by hospital supply organizations and to sort and reclaim small parts used in the manufacture of aircraft
Four Confederate widows are receiving care in the Confederate Soldiers Home a responsibility of the Department since 1937 There are 39 other surviving widows of Confederate soldiers in Georgia who are eligible for admission to the Home should they so request The average age of the widows is 87 the oldest is 102 years of age and the youngest 65
Head Start Upward Bound and other catchup programs for culturallydeprived children in Georgia are carried forward with the technical and advisory assistance of the State Office of Economic Opportunity administered by the State Department The concepts of these programs also are being incorporated in the day care arrangements being made for children of mothers required to work under the Work Incentive Program
Concern for the Departments ability to sell and defend its programs led to the State Directors personal request to County Commissioners to consider submitting the names of qualified Negro citizens for appointment to County Boards of Family and Children Services in the spring of 1968 As a consequence 57 Negro Board Members have been appointed in 56 Georgia counties by the State Director giving representation to Georgias largest minority group and greatly strengthening the countyadministered welfare system
Integration of the Executive Staff and the employment and promotion of Negroes to secretarial and clerical positions has resulted from the State Directors policy of filling all Department positions with the best qualified people available without regard to race color creed or national origin Qualified Negroes have been elevated to responsible executive positions including Emergency Welfare Services Officer State Field Representative in charge of all public welfare programs in Fulton and DeKalb Counties Adoption Consultant and Community Development Representative These men and women fill some of the highest classified positions under the Merit System held by Negroes in Georgia State Government Negroes hold secretarial positions throughout the Department including the office of the State Director
Increasing welfare rolls and expanded social services programs have made inevitable the growth of County Welfare Departments More than half of the County Departments have increased staff and office space to help the needy in this State in the past two years Large efficient and handsome buildings house model facilities for welfare programs in Muscogee and Clarke Counties Other counties are planning new buildings
For better administration and coordination of the Departments programs and to cut bureaucratic red tape the position of Program Management Officer was established in the office of the State Director A streamlining of Georgias welfare check issuance system to get first welfare checks to eligible citizens within one week of their approval for benefits was developed by this official and perfected by a Departmental Task Force Known as the Improved Benefits Issuance System IBIS it represents the application of modern business methods by the Divisions of Social Administration and Business Administration to offer immediate financial help to clients to free the time of State and County employees for social welfare services and to economize by simplifying procedures and eliminating 25 forms required by the previous manual system
Public understanding of welfare programs and problems creates the public support which will be required if the upward welfare trend is to be halted and the chains of dependency broken No other area of government has been more controversial more misunderstood more criticized than welfare
Recognizing the need to interpret welfare programs policies and problems to the general public the Department is one of two State Welfare Departments in the nation which has an active Community Development Unit Community Development Representatives travel the State presenting slide programs and other factual programs and as a part of this effort the State Director has spoken to civic church school college womens and governmental groups in all 159 counties The Unit developed with the Court Services Section a slide program which explains the juvenile delinquency problem to the general public and which has been a valuable training aid for classes for law enforcement personnel and Juvenile Court staff members
Acknowledging that mistaken notions about public welfare often are based on lack of knowledge and misinformation the Public Information Office has prepared and published information pamphlets on all major Department programs for distribution to interested Georgia citizens including welfare clients and has answered on an individual basis inquiries from citizens and citizen groups welfare clients and client groups and State and county officials

The roacs out of poverty
Training of adults
Education of children
Prevention of unwanted births
I feed the hungry
A hungry person cannot be expected to give attention to any problem other than that of finding himself something to eat
The War on Hunger is being won The Department has established permanent food programs in 158 Georgia counties and has set a goal of reaching at least 300000 needy and hungry Georgians through those programs
II prevent unwanted births
The welfare dilemma is caused by children being born into this world who are not wanted and who have no one to rear them to responsible productive adulthood
This problem is one which must be solved before the births occur The Department of Family and Children Services arranges free birth control information and assistance to all citizens who request it in conjunction with the Department of Public Health which conducts family planning clinics in most Georgia counties The two Departments also are seeking funds and authority to provide these services through private physicians reimbursed through the Medicaid Program
31
III train
unemployed and underemployed for jobs
The illiterate must be taught to read and write and the untrained must be given skills that will bring them employment at a living wage
Meaningful employment is the only way out of poverty for the man or woman who can learn a skill and hold a job A job means hope for a better future and the Work Incentive WIN Program will help persons who have had little or no chance in todays world to move from welfare rolls to payrolls and become selfsupporting taxpaying citizens Greater emphasis is being given to vocational education through a new and broader Agreement with the Department of Education

IV cure the sick and rehabilitate the handicapped
Sickness disease and mental and physical handicaps must be identified treated and whenever possible cured
Sick and crippled people cannot be expected to learn to be and to function as responsible productive members of our society Under the Medicaid Program welfare recipients are certified to have their hospital drug doctor Xray laboratory and nursing home bills paid by the Department of Public Health Closer cooperation and coordination with Vocational Rehabilitation Services have been achieved through a new Interdepartmental Agreement
35
V educate deprived children
Special motivational help for educationally and culturallydeprived children an essential element in any program to break the welfare cycle which perpetuates dependency is the most important effort we can make toward solving the problems of welfare
Children must be schooled in the ABCs but also must be taught about their own worth and capacity as individuals and about the rewards of study work and ambition
The State Office of Economic Opportunity administered by the Department emphasizes Head Start and other catchup programs for deprived children Child welfare services now are available in all counties Young people over the State are volunteering tutorial help for children in AFDC families Children of working mothers are being placed in day care centers for help in broadening their horizons and motivation to seek a better way of life as well as for medical and dental services and nutritious meals
the future is
a dignified comfortable way of life for the aged the blind the disabled
the future is a child
