settlement Service.
Herbert P. Sillman, re-elected
president of JFCS, pointed out in
his annual report
that the agency
is planning out-
reach programs

and is consider-
ing the possibil-
ities of a tele-

of volunteer serv-
ices. The agency
Sillman
a 1 s o anticipates

of the elderly who will be moving
into Federation Apartments.
All current officers of JFCS were

ored upon her re-
tirement as pres-
ident of Resettle-
ment Service,
Mrs. Grossman and a plaque was
presented to her by Mrs. Sol C.
Grossman, who was elected as her
successor.
The plaque noted Mrs. Caplan's
seven years' service as president
of Resettlement Service, particu-
larly her support and advocacy
of the refugee program and the
settlement of refugee families
in Detroit." She also was com-
mended for her consistent sup-
port of the agency's role in
pressing indemnification and res-
titution claims for victims of the
Nazis.
Mrs. Arnold Frank was elected
vice president of Resettlement
Service; Mrs. Philip R. Marcuse,
secretary; and David I. Rosin,
treasurer. Re-elected to the board

Samuel Lerner, executive direc-
tor of JFCS and Resettlement
Service, noted that JFCS provided
homemaker service for 58 families
in 1970. Seventeen full- and part-
time homemakers provided 28,055
hours of service.
In addition, the agency ren-
dered services to 20 unmarried
mothers and placed 10 infants
with families for adoption. A
total of 4,809 days of care were
provided to 19 children in vari-
ous residential treatment facili'
ties, including Bellefaire, in
Cleveland, and the Orchards in
Livonia.
During 1970, professional social
workers on the staff conducted
13,452 office interviews and 2,046
home visits, plus 18,609 telephone
contacts with clients.
Lerner said that as part of the
housing relocation project, 34 aged
families or individuals were moved
out of the Dexter area "and main-
tained and financially supplement-
ed in new, better housing located
near Jewish synagogues and shop-
n s."
•
He noted that there has been an
expansion in the agency's volunteer
services to nursing homes and to
homebound aged and lonely per-
sons.
The major focus of the agency
remains the treatment of individ-
uals and families with social and
emotional problems.
The agency has expanded the
emphasis on group therapy—adults
who meet regularly with a profes-
sional staff member to discuss
marital problems and the difficul-
ties they face in handling their
children. In addition, the agency
is involved increasingly in total
family interviewing.
The agency's role screening
applicants for Federation Apart-
ments was highlighted. Most of
br
Following the invasion of Czecho-
slovakia in 1968, most refugees
who came to Detroit arrived from
Poland, with a few families from
Czechoslovakia, Cuba and Egypt.
From June 1970 through May 1971,
Resettlement Service provided
financial assistance, counseling and
other services to 48 families, con-
sisting of 131 individuals. During
1970, Resettlement Service claim-
ants obtained awards totaling over
$241,000 from the German govern-
ment because of loss of property,
damage to health and loss of
occupation.
Mrs. Caplan noted that Unit
Hias Service predicted there ma
be fewer refugees coming to the
United States in 1971 than in the
previous year. The number will
depend partly on the number of
Jews who will be permitted to
come to the United States or go
to Israel from the Soviet Union.
the screening was done in sum-
mer and fall 1970, but recently
the agency was asked to partici-
pate again to screen additional
applicants.
An experimental project provid-
ing casework and consultation serv-
ices to the United Hebrew Schools
and the Southfield school system
was noted.
Lerner indicated that within the
next few months arrangements will
be worked out with several public
agencies in Oakland County so that
JFCS can provide staff and profes-
sional knowhow in outreach pro-
grams to disturbed youths.
The committee on family and
aging services discussed the plan
for a residential care facility for
retarded adults and recommended
to the board that the agency co-
operate and provide consultation
to community groups involved in
planning for this facility..
The public policy and inter-
agency relations committee dis-
cussed liberalization of laws on
use of marijuana.
Mrs. Samuel Caplan, in her re-
port as retiring president of Re-
settlement Service, not e d the
changes in the refugee program
during recent years.
It was anticipated that some
Jewish families will leave Chile.
Some may settle in other South
American countries, and others
may settle in the United States.
