Abstract

This summary, for journal publication, of a study whose full details are being published in book form, brings the welfare field up-to-date on what began as a precedent-setting agency. The Lower East Side Family Union, in New York City, has provided many years of service, and has justifiably drawn national attention from its inception, when prevention was more talked about than funded. The lessons to be drawn from its work and the example it has set grow more timely every year.
