JFCS, Resettlement Service to Report
on Projects of Year at Annual Meeting

At the joint annual meeting of
the Jewish Family and Children's
Service and Settlement Service,
2 p.m. May 19 at the Jewish Center,
there will be a reception and rec-
ognition of the volunteers who
have helped the agency during the
past year in providing services to
the chronically ill in nursing
homes.
Mrs. Morris J. Brandwine, chair-
man of the committee on services
to aging, will report on the activi-
ties of the volunteer project. Board

Mrs. Caplan

Mr. Harris

and staff will have an opportunity
to meet the volunteers, many of
whom have participated this year
on special programs during Rosh
Hashana, Hanuka, Purim and Pass-
over. The person-to-person visit-
ing program, all during the year,
will be described.
Merle Harris, president of the
Jewish Family and Children's
Service, will present an annual re-
port highlighting the year's activi-
ties.
Two of the major activities of
the agency during the year have
involved. services to aging. A
housing relocation committee,
under the chairmanship of Jos-
eph Garson, studied the needs
of residents of the Dexter area
and other riot-torn areas of De-
troit. Following their survey of
the need, a demonstration pro.
ject was proposed, approved by
the JFCS and is now to be fi-
nanced by the Jewish Commu-
nity Foundation. This will pro-
vide for supplementary rent as-
sistance to a limited number of
families needing relocation.
The Sheruth Study Committee,
under the co-chairmanship of Mrs.
Stanley Akers and Mrs. Joseph H.
Jackier, studied the declining need
for a group home for emotionally
disturbed adolescent girls. The
agency plans to discontinue the ex-
isting program but to merge its
services with that of the agency
study and receiving home (Barg-
man House). The agency will op-
erate one facility for short-term
placement of children needing
emergency care and study until
long-term plans are worked out.
Harris stated that "the agency
will continue to provide foster
home and residential treatment
services for those in need of place-
ment and will continue to use the
facilities of Bellefaire, in Cleve-
land and The Orchards, in Livonia.
He noted that during the past
year the agency worked out new
arrangements with the Detroit
Section, National Council of Jew-
ish Women, which helps support
The Orchards. Now JFCS does all

of the intake and financial plan-
ning with families who apply for
placement of children at The Or-
chards. Bruce E. Thal was chair-
man of the agency committee
which worked out the new policies
with relation to the Orchards.
William M. Wetsman, chairman
of the nominating committee, will
present the recommendations for
new members to the board of di-
rectors of JFCS.
Mrs. Caplan noted that dur-
ing the period from June 1, 1967
to April 20, 1968, a total of 12
family units, consisting of 25 in-
dividuals, arrived for resettle-
ment in Detroit, and that cur-
rently the agency is providing
assistance to 17 families, consist-
ing of 41 individuals. Since the
Six-Day- War in June 1967,
there has been an increase in
the number of refugees, pri-
marily from Egypt and Morocco,
desiring to settle in the United
States. At present Resettlement
Service has a total of 22 units
scheduled for resettlement in De-
troit.
Resettlement Service has also
increased its indemnification and
restitution services to victims of
the Nazis who have filed claims
against the German government.
There has been an increase of
awards received during the past
year. In 1967, through Resettle-
ment Service efforts and the
United Restitution Organization,
$139,923 was granted to Detroit
area residents who had filed
claims for loss of property, health,
education, or vocation as a result
of Nazi persecution.
At the Resettlement Service
meeting there will be nomination
of board members and election of
officers for the coming year. Mrs.
Lewis H. Manning is chairman of
the nominating committee.
Samuel Lerner, executive direc-
tor of both Jewish Family and
Children's Service and Resettle-
ment Service, will present a sum-
mary of agency and professional
activities.
Mrs. Jack Baroff is chairman of
the committee planning the annual
meeting.
