Janet Ann Miller, Fordham University

Abstract

"To work for the child is a very particular vocation, and to work for the abandoned child is a destiny." This was the heritage given to the Missionary Servants of the Most Blessed Trinity by their founder, the Reverend Thomas Augustine Judge, C.M., M.S.Ss.T. Prominent in the aggregation of abandoned children are those who have been determined "eligible for adoption, " for truly they are abandoned in every sense of the word. It was in the interest of these adoptable children that this present study was undertaken.
