| Abstract: | Sample case files of the county Welfare Department that were retained after being selected by the department's staff because of their uniqueness, interesting case information, or significant program or situation. This sampling was not done according to any statistical method. The files include cases dealing with aid for dependent children, food stamps, old age assistance, medical assistance, day care licensing, and nursing care placement. Many files deal with the delinquency, guardianship, and adoption of children and the care of mentally ill individuals. |
| Quantity: | 29.25 cubic feet (29 boxes and 1 partial box). |
| Location: | See Detailed Description for shelf locations. |
The files contain applications, correspondence, investigator's and physician's reports, court orders and other documents, and statements of family resources. Also includes are the case workers' notes (usually typed), which often contain extensive family and case history. However, there are few, if any, case synopsis or summary sheets in these files.
