TUTTLE Orphans, and dependent and neg- lected children need not be con- demned to life in an orphanage, for, the Michigan Children's Institute was established in 1935 to provide family home care for such youngsters. The Institute is located in Ann Arbor and is a part of the State Department of Social Welfare. Its purpose is to take over guardian- ship and responsibility for or- phans, dependent and neglected children, children whose parents are unable to care for them and a certain number of behavior prob- lems. Children come under the care of the Institute when they are commit- ted by the Juvenile Department of the Probate Court. The local police department may file a petition to the court to investigate a case. A county welfare agent then investi- gates and contacts the parents. If the case cannot be handled by leaving the child in his own home, the Pro- bate Court holds a hearing and the child may be committed to the Chil- dren's Institute. After committment, a represen- tative of the Institute or another social agency goes to see the par- ents. If they can find enough in- formation about the child, it may be possible to locate a foster home for him at once. He might also be placed in a temporary 'study' home in order to learn his special prob- lems and thus place him in a suit- able permanent home. A few children live for a short time at the Institute which is a receiving 'study' home. The majority of these need help before they can be placed in foster homes. The Institute also studies children who have behavior problems and makes recommenda- tions to the Court about what should be done. The children for whom the Institute is performing this diagnos- tic service attend the school at the University Hospital. In placing children in foster homes, great care is taken to find a home where the child will be able to grow in an atmosphere of emo- tional stability. The children take 'psychological tests - to insure that they are not mentally deficient, and they are placed in homes where the intelligence of the parents will be on the same level with that of the child. The Institute also selects homes where the parents will be tolerant about any bad habits which the chil- dren may have developed from their previous environment. So that the. children may more easily become a part of the family, they are also placed in homes where the parents are of the same racial stock and have the same eye, hair and skin coloring. The Institute is divided into three departments. The Intake Depart- ment investigates and decides whether the Institute can take a child and find a suitable home for him, the Home Finding Department locates parents who will be willing to provide homes, and the Boarding Home Department supervises the children while they are in the fos- ter homes. The Institute has a psychologist, a. consulting psychiatrist and a staff of social workers. DAILY OFFICIAL BULLETIN (Continued from Page 4) 7:30 tonight in the League.
