Changes In Community
Service Discussed By
Communal Workers
LOS ANGELES (JTA) --
More than 1,000 American
Jewish communal workers, at-
tending the 66th annual meet-
ing here this month of the
National Conference of Jewish
Communal Service studied and
discussed the emerging changes
in serving a third-generation
community. Meeting concur-
rently with the Conference
were four affiliated groups,
the Association of Jewish Com-
munity Relations Workers, Na-
tional Association of Jewish
Center Workers, National Asso-
ciation for Jewish Education
and the National Association of
Jewish Homes for the Aged.
Relationship between public
and private agencies in plan-
ning and implementing serv-
ices was discussed at a general
session of the conference. Mar-
tha K. Selig of the New York
Federation of Jewish Philan-
thropies, pointed out that "gov-
ernment on all levels is reflect-
ing an increased responsibility,
prinmrily through funding, in
areas of program planning, re-
search and education, and di-
rect services." She asked what
was the role of the local and
voluntary agency in this situa-
tion.
Herschel Alt, executive vice
president of the Jewish Board
of Guardians of New York,
told the conference that "there
is a place for the private
agency and the government in
community services. As a mat-
ter of fact, the lines are blend-
ing, there is no real private
agency. All of them work co-
operatively with government
agencies. It will vary from city
to city, but generally the grow-
tag governmental services will
build on existing agencies,
using their experience, their
personnel and their facilities."
Sanford Solender, executive
vice president, National Jewish
Welfare Board, asserted that
"Collaboration with public
services can be the best ex-
pression of the broad social
commitment of Jewish social
welfare agencies. Administered
with sensitivity to purposes
nd roles, such cooperation
can enable the agencies to ful-
fill their Jewish purposes and
to contribute significantly o
meeting the needs of the whole
community. In the finest sense,
Jewish agencies thus take their
91ace as an integral part of the
total social welfare complex
erected by a free people to
achieve its human destiny."
Dr. Herman D. Stein, dean-
elect of the School of Applied
Social Sciences, Western Re-
serve University, told the con-
ference that social work was
drawing increasingly on the
behavioral and social sciences
for more effective work in all
fields. He stressed that profes-
sional education of social work-
ers provided the means for the
greater application of scientific
learning to the day-to-day
problems of social work and
noted that it was the social
worker who had to take the
