Friday, October 29, 1976 THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS Association for Jewish Retarded Lauds Brodhead Legislation Legislation sponsored in the U.S. House of Rep- resentatives by Con- gressman William Brodhead (D-17th Dis- trict) received strong support from the Associa- tion for Jewish Retarded. Morton Collins, presi- dent of the association, which is supervising and supporting Haverim House for the retarded on Evergreen, this week re- called the support the group has given to Brodhead's successful efforts to a ssure in- creased supp .rt for re- tarded youths and adults. Collins' statement said, "The Associa. ion con- gratulates Coi zressman Brodhead for his efforts on behalf of the retarded citizens of this commu- nity." Collins said Brodhead shepherded a bill through the House and then ob- tained a sponsor in the Senate for legislation to reform Supplemental Security Income, com- monly known as SSI, which heretofore reduced Business Briefs Jacqueline Shops store at Nine Mile and Coolidge Rds., has re-opened, ac- cording to owner Murray Levin. Levin said the store has been completely remodeled for greater display areas and larger selections.

Brodhead and Rep. James Blanchard (D-18th District) were the only re- spondents to the Zionist Organization of Detroit's recent questionnaire who answered favorably to all 12 questions regarding support of Israel. His staff worked for more than a year to shepherd the bill through Congress. A nationally operating survey committee analyzed Rep. Brodhead's rating as 100 percent in matters relating to the Middle East and Israel. Brodhead lists more than 30 actions in his two years in Congress sup- porting Israel and Soviet Jewry. The actions in- clude votes in the House, MORTON COLLINS or eliminated benefits to retarded individuals not living in institutions. "Although Con- gressman Brodhead's bill is not everything that we of the Association had hoped for, it certainly is a step in the right direction," Col- lins said, " and will serve to encourage retarded adults not in need of con- stant supervision to live in small residential settings which attempt to nor- malize the residents' envi- ronment and utilize exist- ing community services." Collins added, "Corn- REP. BRODHEAD pared with tax reform, such legislation tends to go unnoticed, however, the Association wants Congressman Brodhead to know that its members applaud his bill and rec- ognize and appreciate his interest in mentally re- tarded citizens." The Brodhead bill began with a letter from Mel Ravitz, director of Detroit-Wayne County Community Mental Health Board. Brodhead has a retarded brother and was sympathetic to the concept.
