Five Foster Care Placements Highlight Welfare Board March
In March 1949 the Welfare Board placed five children in foster care as no in-county homes could be found. The cases stemmed from family losses and housing changes, with some children previously in state boarding arrangements or under relatives. The board stresses foster care as a last resort and notes ongoing services beyond money aid, with 258 interviews and $25,652.95 spent that month, including allocations from county, state, and federal sources.
