Open Evenings Vocational Service Director Describes Agency's Pro- gram for Servicemen By M. WILLIAM WEINBERG Executive Director, Jewish Vocational Service Nearly 9,000 Jwish men and women of Detroit are in the armed forces. Hundreds of others have already returned to their families and to the community. All of us feel a deep responsi- bility toward them. Words and plans are flowing thick and fast on how to help them adjust them- selves again to civilian life. But words and plans legal rights and M. W. Weinberg benefits, parades and celebra- tions, information and referral centers, are not enough. There must be a fundamental human understanding of the vet- eran. The community and the family of the homecoming GI must be helped to understand him. and the subtle changes that the war has etched into his make-up. A generous federal government has legislated liberally for the veteran's external needs. He will have the 'best medical care, pen- sions, vocational rehabilitation if he is disabled, higher education at government expense if he de- sires to go back to school. Adjustment Problems In drawing up these rights and benefits, the - government could not legislate for some of the human factors in adjustment. It could not write laws to cover the need for the understanding that must exist between the re- turning veteran and his family, or to provide the individual guidance and preparation that communities and employers, rel- atives and homecoming service- Men, will need during difficut days of demobilization. The government realized that `skilled workers of private agen- cies would have to play a lead- ing part in helping returned veterans with human problems of adjustment. The Teal responsi- bility of such agencies as Jewish Social Service Bureau, Jewish Vocational Service, Jewish War Veterans and the Jewish Com- munity Center lies in this area of "veteran activity." How They Differ Although the human needs the veteran brings to our community agencies are roughly the same needs as others, the .veteran may differ from other persons in the following ways: 1. He has been affected by what he has seen and suffered in military service. 2. His community and family have changed, too, however, imperceptibly, since he went. away. 3. He may find it difficult to sud- denly exchange military regime and • habits for their complete opposites in civilian life, with no more preparation than a short stay at an Army separa- tion or Navy discharge center. 4. He .is suddenly confronted with a whole set of decisions to make—educa- tional, occupational, and social. 5. As a veteran. he is entitled to numerous legal rights and benefits, which may color his decisions. 6. He may have a tremendous urg- ency to do something immediately to make up for the years he has been away. What happens soon after his discharge may have a tremendous psy- chological impact on his future ability to become an effective part Of the commun ity. The Community's Service This is a veteran—as nearly as he can be described today. Al- though modified by the general distinctions outlined here, he is, in the first analysis, a civilian. He has the wants and needs of other civilians—and no two ci- vilians are alike. Our agencies have a twofold responsibility in relation to vet- erans . needS and problems inso- far as we are able to view them. First, we need complete un- derstanding of what each vet- eran is as an individual . and what he has gone through. • Secondly, our private agencies are ready to give the veteran the advice and help and guid- ance he neelils as he leaves mili- tary memories and life behind him and puts on the habits _of civilian life once again.. As com- prehensive as are the benefits provided by a wise government, just as comprehensive is the human warmth and understand- ing provided by our agencies of the Jewish Welfare Federation and the War Chest. We cannot and will not fail the 'men who fought for and defended our country. A CALL - TO ACTION!
