Center Sees Nixon Era Support for Northwest Opportunity Center
The Cook County Office of Economic Opportunity director says federal funding for 1969-70 should be about the same as this year, potentially $63,000, with a commitment from federal official Allan Bealls. Local support covers about 40 percent of the budget, including $11,000 already contributed by area agencies and churches. The center's budget goes to the advisory committee next week for review.
