Nearly 100 are pro- jected to be resettled here from last fall through May 31, 1988. Hillel Day School has developed a program that will maintain the Jewish educa- tional development of its students after their nine years of intensive study. With a UJC grant of $10,000, the program's continuity will be fostered through a program of monthly social and educa- tional programs and through guided study projects. The Holocaust Curriculum Project, developed for use in public high school social studies classes will receive $25,000. It combines videotapes, readings and hands-on projects to help students understand the historical and social implica- tions of the Holocaust. Some $3,000 was given to programs which provide tutorial assistance to youngsters with learning pro- blems at Temple Emanu-El; and $15,000 for in-service training for the 100 faculty members who teach 1,700 children at Temple Israel. Support of $21,000 was also approved, for a second year, for the Jewish Experiences for Families program (J.E.F.F.) under the auspices of the Fresh Air Society, a Federation agency. J.E.F.F. combines group work and informal Jewish education techniques to pro- vide effective family activities under synagogue and agency auspices. The program trains volunteers, engages previous- ly unaffiliated young families and develops materials. Second-year funding of $30,000 will go to the Care Management program spon- sored by the Area Agency on Aging. The project accesses a network of community-based services which enable the frail elderly to remain in their own homes. Support of $27,500 was con- tinued for the In-Home Respite Care program of Jewish Family Service. Respite care provides support for full-time care givers in situations where the terminally-ill or chronically- ill patient might otherwise be placed in a nursing home. Since its inception, the pro- gram has served 175 families. Nearly 10,000 hours of respite care service were pro- vided this year. Up to $37,500 in scholar- ships was approved for local Jewish educators to attend the CAJE (Coalition for Alter- natives in Jewish Education) conference in Israel this sum- mer.
