Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Concern-Every Child: State and Community Planning for Wartime and Post-War Security of Children Madam: Herewith is transmitted Our Concern - Every Child; State and community planning for wartime and post-war security for children. This publication was prepared for the use of State and local [departments charged with responsibilities for children, defense-council committees on children in wartime, State-wide committees undertaking long-range programs, and local citizen groups in communities. It is intended to serve as a guide for the study of State and community resources and action needed to safe guard childhood and provide opportunities for youth. The out lines for evaluating resources and planning State and community action are based upon thirds of child health; education, and social welfare which by the 1940 White House Con ference on Children in a Democracy. The Conference recognized that the State and the local communities, together with parents, have primary responsibility for making these standards a reality. The Wartime emergency has served to emphasize the urgency of making generally available throughout the Nation those services which are needed to assure children their full chance in life. The rapidly developing interest in planning for the post-war period has drawn attention to the necessity for coordinated State and com munity planning and action in behalf of children. The material was compiled by Emma O. Lundberg, Consultant in Social Services for Children, with the collaboration of the various divisions of the Bureau, which prepared certain of the outlines for study. The United States Office of Education and the American Library Association furnished the outlines relating to education and library service, respectively. The range of subject-matter corresponds with the scope of the reports of the White House Con ference on Children in a Democracy.
