When new public relief agencies take over responsibility for unemployment relief, JSSB returns to its function of family casework. “The Jewish Social Services Bureau believes its work to be in the fields of prevention and re-construction: salvaging families from the disaster into which social conditions have plunged them; preventing those on the margin of economic breakdown from entering that realm; and guiding boys and girls so that they will not need to know the sorrows of broken homes,” according to Miss Violet Kittner, executive director.
