Excerpt from The Selection of Foster Homes for Children: Principles and Methods Followed by the Boston Children's Aid Society, With Illustrative Cases
During the preparation Of Monograph no. 1 it became evident that similar material relating to other phases of child care is either now in the files of child welfare agencies or is in process of collection. The New York School of Social Work has therefore asked and received the co-operation of the fifteen persons named on the preceding page, who will act as an Editorial Board, to help select and edit this material for publication in a series of Monographs in Child Welfare.
The variety of material accessible to the Board, through the specialized interests Of its individual members, covers the fields Of protection, health, probation, parole, and family care Of both normal children and children with special handicaps.
Each monograph will be devoted to children presenting a particular problem or group Of problems. It will be the purpose in each mono graph to give and interpret actual records of children in such a way as to illustrate principles and processes used in attempts to care for, educate, and adjust these children to joy and usefulness in life.
Monograph no. 1 describes the work Of finding and investigating free and boarding homes for children as it is being done at the present time (1919) by the Boston Children's Aid Society.
