A model rehabilitation facility
for mentally and physically handi-
capped people will be constructed
by the Jewish Vocational Service-
Community Workshop at Wood-
ward and Canfield, just north of
the present medical center, Kaye
G. Frank, president, announced.
Completion of the purchase of the
property from the Children's Cen-
ter of Wayne County was made
final with presentation of a check
for $150,000 from United Jewish
Charities, the trust organization of
the Jewish Welfare Federation of
Detroit. William Avrunin, execu-
tive vice president of the Federa-
tion, gave it to Jack Matthews,
president of the Children's Center.
The new facility is the result of
the cooperation of many groups.
Edgar Schmidt of the United Foun-
dation staff presented a check for
$30,000 from Torch Drive capital
funds to be added to aid in the
project of $800,000 for purchase
and remodeling.
Fifty per cent of the total cost is
being financed by the Social Re-
habilitation Administration of the

U.S. Departrnent of Health, Educa-
tion and Welfare.
"We are delighted that we have
been able to locate a property with
all the requirements of a central
location and efficient transporta-
tion. Most of our clients are de-
pendent on public transportation to
reach us so it is an important
factor," Frank said.
He pointed out that the adjacent
medical center with its hospital
facilities, physicians and the Re-
habilitation Institute would be an
added convenience for Vocational
Service clients.

ice to the City of Detroit was rec-
