This volume consists of papers delivered at two seminars of the
Fels Institute of Local and State Government at the University of
Pennsylvania. The first seminar considered basic issues underlying
the coordination of family and child welfare services, and the
second seminar discussed issues in the coordinated use of family
and child welfare resources. The papers presented in this volume
represent a basic analysis of major issues in the coordination of
social welfare programs. Topics discussed cover the structure and
framework of social welfare services and agencies, both public and
private; the philosophic and legal bases for administering welfare
services; the overlapping roles of agencies; the allocation of
resources to achieve maximum benefits from the funds available, and
the education and training of social, workers to relieve personnel
shortages. Not only are the problems analyzed but solutions and
suggestions are put forth to solve them. Guidelines are proposed
for change and development of the social welfare field. All the
contributors are distinguished in the field of social welfare, and
their evaluations and suggestions are of importance to all
Americans, regardless of political beliefs and affiliations. Many
will find agreement with the sharp appraisals and revolutionary
ideas concerning family and child welfare programs presented in
these papers. Much of the dead wood is cleared away and many sacred
cows are disposed of by logical and reasoned arguments directed
toward over hauling the welfare system in this country by
legislative action, private means, educating the public, and
developing an informed leadership. Contributors include Alfred J.
Kahn and Fred Delliquadri, New York School of Social Work, Columbia
University; Verl Lewis, School of Social Work, University of
Maryland; Wayne Vasey, Graduate School of Social Work, Rutgers
University; James R. Dumpson, Department of Welfare, City of New
York, and Mary R. Baker, Council on Social Work Education.
