The Effect of Two Programs: After Care Service Versus on Going Service for Discharged Boys from a Resident Institution, St. Vincent's Hall, Incorporated Brooklyn, New York, 1964 to 1967

Earl L Dow, Fordham University

Abstract

Not every boy that is born into the world will have the opportunity of being raised in his own family setting under ideal conditions. Due to a myriad of foreseen and unforeseen circumstances, many boys between the ages of ten and nineteen years of age will at some point in this age span, live and grow within the confines of a child caring institution for a part of, or all of these growing years. So important is the caring and rearing of children, that individuals, churches and society have taken it upon themselves to carry on where there is a breakdown in the family unit, making child rearing for a family at a particular given time, impossible.
