Cats For Child Advotaty Confer
ATLANTA, Ga. - The urgent
need for establishing a national
center of child advocacy in the
Federal government has been
endorsed by the 12-state Sout
h Regional White House
Conference on Children which
met here earlier this month.
More than 200 delegates from
southern states aridPuertoßico
called for congressional appro
priation of $300,000 for FY1972
to support a continuing children
and young program.
As outlined by presidential aide
Stephen Hess, the projected
program would begin July 1,
1971. One-third of the money
would be funneled to state com
mittees.
An additional SIOO,OOO would
be earmarked for establishing
a strong advocacy role within
the Office of Child Development
in the Department of Health,
Education, and Welfare, Wash
ington.
The final SIOO,OOO would be
used for implementing action
programs through young peo
ple.
Elaborating on the establish
ment of a child advocacy cen
ter, Dr. Donald Cohen, chair -
man of infant development re
search, HEW, Washington, told
the conference that a national
center for child advocacy would
be the recognized voice for chil
dren at the national level.
Such a center, he explained,
would operate through two
major subdivisons--a chil
dren’s concern unit and a unit
for vulnerable children.
"The children’s concern cen
ter would be a place for parents
to turn for information, an
alysis, and action," said Cohen.
The center for vulnerable chil
dren would be designed to serve
the physical, environmental and
emotionally handicapped needs
of children, particularly Indian
children and other deprived mi
norities.
Rev. Andrew Young, chair
man of the Atlanta Community-
Relations Commission, urged
the state delegations to "find
ways to listen to children" in
a key address that concluded
the conference.
Young deplored today’s present
parent - child relationship
which, he said, has too often
become more authoritative than
loving.
He cited the open hostility by
some young people towards
schools which have become
"fortresses" rather than en
joyable places for learning.
"There is a tremendous a
mount of violence In our so
ciety that is being share with
our children,’’ Young said.
"I don’t mean television."
"I mean like putting 40 kids
in a room and expecting them
to keep quiet or else. . .It’s a
form of repression, particular
ly in the garger cities where
people don't know each other
as they do In the small towns."
Children, he insisted, have a
legitimate need to find their role
and lifestyle; and to do this they
need to have some freedom.
“Nowhere in society do we
seem to be acknowledging that
children have more knowledge
at their level of education than
we had when we were at that
level," said Young.
Young people know school and
drug problems better than many
adults; they even have many of
the answers and will provide
them, if adults are willing to
give them the trust and re
sponsibility they need, said the
Atlanta human relations of
ficial.
