Maine ADC program praised for low ineligibility rate
Editorial lauds Maine Health and Welfare staff Pauline A. Smith and Paul LeVesque for a quality-quantity review system in the Aid to Dependent Children program. A federal study found only 2.4 percent of recipients were ineligible, far below national averages, with most ineligibility due to changes in family status rather than improper grants. The piece urges an objective, legislative reexamination and continued reliance on trained social workers who defend the program for dependent children.
