Bill Would Aid Worthy Mothers In North Carolina
Raleigh January 12 a proposed bill to provide aid for mothers able to care for children but financially unable to do so will be presented to the general assembly with support from civic and interfaith groups including the North Carolina legislative council of women. The plan calls for a state annual expenditure of 160000 with a 50000 state appropriation matched by counties choosing to participate. About 3000 mothers are identified as needing aid, aiming to keep families intact rather than placing children in orphanages. Administration would fall to the state board of charities and public welfare via county officers, with determinations by juvenile court judges and county boards subject to state approval after investigation. North Carolina would join five states already using a mothers aid system, varying by qualifications. eligibility includes widowhood divorce desertion or incapacitated husband, three years state residency and one year county residence. The Kesler model at Thomasville Baptist orphanage already assists 150 families, supporting keeping families together.
