"We will attempt to show in this study that certain children in one County in Georgia are deprived of some economic support at a critical time during their high school education. Aid to Dependent Children, in Georgia as in many other states, terminates automatically when the child attains the age of 16 years. Presumably, this is two years preceding his graduation from high school. It will be shown on the basis of the information obtained that the withdrawal of ADC compelled many of these children to leave school and obtain work in order to contribute toward the family income"--Introduction. === Typescript. === "June 7, 1952." === "Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Social Work." === Advisor: Arnold Falk, Professor Directing Study. === Graduate study in social work. === Includes bibliographical references (leaves 29-30).
