He is a licensed Psychologist who has specialized in the treatment of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorders Welfare system less likely The Welfare System is made up of several different programs that are federally funded to assist families with financial needs. Programs con sist of food stamps, cash assistance, medical assistance, and general assis tance. Most of the recipients are non working mothers with at least one child. The Welfare System is pres ently working on programs to help recipients develop job skills and get their education. With programs like these, some of the recipients that abuse the sys tem now, will be less likely to abuse the system after going through some of these programs. In essence, since there are not many benefits they need to survive in this sometimes cruel and callous world. Welfare is based upon income and number of people in a family (mother, number of children and a father, in one is around). For cash assistance they receive about $300 for a mother who is not working. They get $70 more per child in the house hold. $370 is not enough to pay for rent, utilities or household goods. Food stamps could cover grocery bills if they qualify. The stress from wait ing month to month to receive a wel fare check is high. The check may help cover some of the day-to-day bills, but it will not cover all of them. Thus, in order to survive, recipients turn to abusing the welfare system.

NIRN BERGSNA...Norm ex hibits paintings here as the expression of one man's journev through PTSD Most of the welfare recipients have little or no education, come from a minority group (African American, Hispanic, Native Ameri can, etc), have little or no job skills and are fairly young. Some of them were abandoned by their boyfriend or husband and suffer from low self-esteem. Their family backgrounds are similar consisting of having a single parent, or parents who are alcohol ics, domestic violence andor child abuse and neglect. They have grown up watching their mother abuse the system and in turn, also abuse the sys tem. These recipients end up getting pregnant at a young age with not stable like support. They turn to the welfare system for financial help and receive amounts that are very small, which keeps them living in poverty. They have to lie on their applications to receive that small amount and end up going to nearby towns and lying on their applications to receive more welfare to keep them just above the poverty level or they sign up in a dif ferent name, all just to make a decent level. At the rates they are getting now, they have to lie on their appli cations and apply in nearby towns just to make a decent living.

Until these pro grams become mandatory and con sistent, welfare recipients will need to do what they need to get bills paid keep a roof over their head and keep food in their mouths. Some of the programs are good now, but do not have very good ben efits. They get to do grunt work, get paid minimum wages and still have no more than they started with. A job paying around six dollars an hour might be seen as a way off of wel fare, but when a woman gets a job, more costs appear. This rate is just above the poverty line. With new programs that sup port these women with more than cash, they can gain self-esteem, mo tivation and pride in themselves. Right now, if they get a job that pays minimum wage, they get kicked off the system. If the Federal Govern ment could elect to pay welfare a cer tain amount of months after a woman has gotten a job, this would help the welfare system, abusing it like before and having no pride in themselves. This transition period would help people on welfare stay focused and be more successful; After all, who can really make a living on $10 an hour with two or three children to raise by yourself, let alone $6.50 an hour. Food for thought. SS SS
