Federation Approves
Program for Aged in
New Orleans
NEW ORLEANS, La., (JTA)—
The New Orleans Jewish Fed
eration has approved a new lei
sure time program for the aged
in this community. The new plan
calls for a full-time program at
the Jewish Community Center,
under the guidance of a full-time
professional worker. The Center
had also approved such a plan
earlier, but did not have the
funds to finance it. The question
of financing the program will
now be taken up with the co
operation of the Community
Chest, the Jewish Federation and
the Jewish Welfare Fund.
The new plan will be set up
on a two-year experimental basis.
It is hoped that the program will
have proved its worth by the end
of that time and will then be ac
cepted as a permanent program
of the Center by the Communi
ty Chest. According to a study
made three years ago, there were
about 1600 persons in the Jewish
community of this city who could
be classified as aged. That num
ber, it is felt, is higher now. The
study found that these individ
uals were not participating in
city-sponsored programs or those
set up by non-denominational
groups.
