The city has an out standing Self-Help program because five mothers on welfare were angry enough to help themselves by seeing to it that a Con fidence Clinic was established. Today the group operates numerous self help programs. About 100 women yearly attend 12-week programs in the Confidence Clinic at an old house that Douglas County lets the program use. It is truly an unconventional program, according to Tuma. The American Institute of Research and Behavioral Science has writ ten a book in order that the public may be informed of the situation the Roseburg mothers encountered - and overcame. The Self-Help program is designed by people on welfare, for people on welfare, and it provides an effective means of confi dence and self-improvement for those per sons who wish to get off welfare. Clackamas Community College will offer a Self-Help facility on campus, provided that facility is able to be initiated. At that point the clinic would discuss and teach money management, nutrition, G.E.D., sew ing and home maintenance. The next meeting will be Tuesday, Dec. 7, at 2 p.m. in CC 101. If interested in this program, please contact Tuma at Student Activities, ext. 257.
