Help with individual problems is available at your county welfare office.) W hat do people mean when they say someone is "on welfare? This generally refers to people who have applied for assistance through their County Public Wel fare Department because they are too old, disabled, or blind to sup port themselves, or because there are needy children whose parents are absent, dead, incapacipated or unable to find work. Can anyone get a w elfare check if he needs money? Not unless he meets the require ments of one of the welfare pro grams. These include Old Age As sistance, Aid to the Disabled, Aid to the Blind, Aid to Dependent Children, and General Assistance. All these programs have specific eligibility requirements, such as residence, age, disability, or lack of parental support. General as sistance provides emergency help in a few cases where people do not meet requirements for other programs, but these people arc expected to support themselves if the are capable of doing so. How much is spent or» public w elfare In Oregon? Between 50 and 60 million dol lars a year. About half of this is Federal money and the rest comes from State and county funds. Do you require recipient« practice birth control? to Recipients are encouraged to take advantage of the fact that birth control drugs and equipment are available, but the final deci sion is left to the individual. There is no requirement of any kind. Doesn't public w elfare work with some fam ilies who are self-support ing? Yes, public welfare offers ser vices to many children whose par ents are not in financial need. Child welfare services can include help to parents and children who have problems in their relationship to each other; protective services to the neglected and abused child; and foster care or adoptive place ments for children who cannot re main with their own families. Pub lic welfare agencies also provide services for many people who are in need of information or referral to other agencies, even where they do not need the services of public welfare itself. I have a nice home. Would I lose it if I applied for old age as sistance? The home you are living in, un less it is of unusual size or value, is not taken into consideration when determining your eligibility for help from welfare. Property in addition to your home would need to be sold if its value brought your total resources above limits of $1000 for a single person or $1250 for a couple. Do all relatives have to contrib ute the same amount if a parent gets assistance? No. It depends on the income each one has and with the number of people dependent on it. Could my fath er's old age grant be transferred here if he moves to Oregon to be with me? Unfortunately, there is no pro vision for bransfer between states.

The law requires that relatives whose income is above certain levels contribute to the support of assistance recipients. Is it true that a lot of crim inals and delinquents come from w el fare fam ilies? Partly true. The same poverty that makes it necessary for a fami ly to apply for help from public welfare is often the source of other social problems, including crime, delinquency and disease. Similar problems are found in many low- income families who do not re ceive public assistance. This is why public welfare today empha sizes training and rehabilitation so that people can find a legitimate means of lifting themselves out of poverty and deprivation and work out more positive ways to realize their goals. W hat incentive do you give a blind person to try to support him self? The law permits all employed blind persons to retain all their earnings up to $85 a month, plus one-half of all earnings above that amount, without affecting their eli gibility for assistance. In addition, earning above these levels may be retained for a specified period of time if there is a specific plan, ap proved by the County Public Wel fare Department, under which the recipient expects to become self- supporting. W hy don't you put w elfare recip ients' names in the newspapers so that no one would apply for help who did n 't really need it? The law prohibits the publication of names of welfare recipients be cause many genuinely needy peo ple might do without needed help under such circumstances. How ever, the law provides for lists of welfare recipients to be available in every county office for inspec tion by citizens who do not plan to use the information for commer cial or political purposes. Do people have to support their parents even if the parents never supported them? Oregon law specifies an exemp tion from the Relative Responsi bility Law for the child of a needy person if, during the minority of the child, such person willfully de serted or abandoned the child. If I get help from w elfare, do I have to pay it back? In general, there is no require ment that assistance be paid back during your lifetime if you are eligible to receive it at the time. However, if you are receiving as sistance while you have a claim or lawsuit pending in connection with a personal injury, public wel fare will have the right to recover the assistance granted you between the time of the injury and the date the settlement or judgment is paid; also anyone who receives assist ance for which he is not eligible can be required to pay this back.

Foster parents are not paid for their services, but public welfare does provide money to cover living costs for children who are placed in foster homes. Is automation affecting the w el fare program? Yes. Many welfare recipients are unskilled people with limited education who cannot get jobs re quiring advanced technical train ing. Public welfare is now making an effort to train its recipients where they will qualify for jobs now available.
