The fact that a child has a physical handicap does not in itself mean he cannot be planned for through adoption. As with all children in permanent custody of the Public Wel fare Commission, the agency makes every effort to find the right home to meet that particular child’s need. It is not always easy to find adoptive homes for a handicapped child and public welfare welcomes applications from prospective adopting parents who feel that they could accept and love such a child as their own. I have a chance to earn five or ten dollars a month on odd jobs, would it mean a cut in m y old age assistance check? If you are already on Old Age As sistance and you find a job of this type, the first ten dollars of monthly earnings plus % of the next forty dol lars can be disregarded completely in computing your need for assis tance. If you earn more than ten dollars, necessary expenses, such as transportation can be considered in determining bow much your grant will be reduced. I am a college student and would like to become a social worker. Is it true that I can get help with the cost of m y graduate education? If you are employed in public wel fare after you complete your under graduate training, there is a possibili ty that you might qualify for one of the educational leave grants public welfare provides for its employees to enable them to complete their professional training. If you are not employed by public welfare, you may be able to qualify for a training grant to help meet the expense of your second year of graduate educa tion after you have completed the first year. In either case, you would be required to agree to work in the agency for a specified period of time following completion of your gradu ate training. Why do som e fam ilies get general assistance when there is a special program for aid to dependent chil dren of unemployed parents? Under Oregon law, persons receiv ing Unemployment Compensation are not eligible for assistance under the Unemployed Parent Program. Some families who need only temporary help, such as those who expect em ployment in less than a month’s time, can receive emergency Gener al Assistance more quickly than eligibility for Aid to Dependent Chil dren could be established.
