Text Any textual data included in the document The Commissionts coverage on police conduct has long been implemented in the Atlanta Police Department, The rules and regulations of this department cover every phase mentioned in the report. From time to time, I am sure there are minor violations of this rule. I have instructed the District Supers visor to give cars in the slum areas of the City closer supervision to see that tnese regulations are carried out, Selecting the right officer for ghetto duty was put in effect when our Crime Prevention Bureau and our Task Force was implemented. It has been a practice of this department to re assign and re=train officers when poor judgement has been used and to credit officers doing a good job. We have not always put our finest officers in slum areas, We have always tried to give negro areas as good, if not better, police protection than white areas since most of these areas are where our high crime rates are, The Commission reported one city report showed it took four times as long for police to respond to a negro area than a white area. We have instructed all. of our officers to answer all calls immediately, The Commission recommended that grievances by citizens should have some external review. We have an Internal Security Squad that investigates all complaints against police and reports directly to the Chief of Police and the Police Committee, A city attorney also is assigned to make investigations within the City government. The Grand Jury and Solicitor General has the = 2 we authority to look into any police misconduct. The FBI is also charged with this responsibility. I believe that any citizen can get justice from one or all of the above investigative bodies. The Commission recommended written departmental policy for discretion and judgement in ghetto areas, Every situation that arises in these areas are different. A Lot of these matters have to be left up to the judgement of the patrolman or his superior officer. Each officer is instructed when he has a situation that is in question to notify his superior officer immediately. This practice has worked successfully in the past, The Commission recommended that we increase negro officers within our department and reeassign more negro officers in slum areas, This has been done, This department has hired all = qualified applicants for years without regard to race, creed or color. They also recommended the creation of community service officers from ghetto areas and that these officers be hired on a ratio of one for every ten police officers, We are now covering ten EOA Centers and we understand there will be 62 schools, 40 parks and 20 play lots made available this summer. To police these _places, it would be necessary for us to have our allotted 85 community service officers by summer, Our Crime Prevention Bureau and these community service officers could work hand in hand and assist the neighborhoods in all City services, They are now working with school gounselors on absenteeism and school. drop outs, assisting youth and adults in employment, meeting with civic neighborhood groups and hearing and eliminating complaints on =n eo 3 os police service and working with our youth in recreational activities. We might go one step further and also explain to the people the Police Department's enforcement program in an effort to show them that we are trying to better their comnunityc The Commission has stated that preserving civil peace is the first responsibility of the government, This we plan to do, They point out, however, we must not mistake a peaceful ox lawful demonstration as a riot. Maintaining civil order is the responsibility of the entire community. The initial incident in most cases started from routine arrest. How the police and community respond to and deal with such, may well determine whetiier they remain a minor police problem or escalate into a major disorder. If a situation arises that has racial overtones, our officers are instructed to notify their superior officer immediately. They are also instructed to notify tne commanding officer of the Crime Prevention Bureau to move his entire squad inte the area and attempt to settle the disorder, We feel that these men have been working in these areas day in and day out and tney know their grievances and complaints. If this fails, we then plan to move in our Task Force who have been giving these areas good, tough police service. They too, have been in and out of these areas each day and know the problems that exist theree The Commission has recommended that the police, when sent in the areas, should know the underlying tensions and e he grievances and we believe tnat these two squads do» Naturally, 1f these two prevention squads fail, the riot squad will follow, The Commission speaks of basic factors and causes and mentions crowded ghetto living, worsen by summer heat and a large amount of young people on the street. They do not think tnese two problems could be remedied by the police. They also mentioned hostility to police which we feel tnat we are trying to remedy with the Crime Prevention Squad. They also mentioned delay in police response in negro areas and I believe that with the coverage we /have in these areas now, this is not the problem here. Rumors and inadequate information in areas of this type always hurts the police, We plan to use Crime Prevention men, Loud speakers and ask the news media ror their assistancee The Committee asks, “What are your control capabilities?* A survey by them showed tnat only 13% of the uniform patrol are on duty from 4:00 P.M. to 12:00 P.M. This is when 86% of all tne disorders occurred, Again, we have tried to look ahead. Plus our Evening Watch Uniform and Evening Watch Traffic, we have our Crime Prevention Bureau and our Task Force working these hours, We place a high premium on prevention of disorders, On training, the Commission survey shows that most police departments only give riot training to their recruits, The average hour training tor these departments were 18 hours per man. The National Guard requires 32 hours per man and 16 hours for their commanding level officers. We have covered riot training in recruit scnool on a Limited basis and given our older officers a) wie Training Keys on riot training. The FBI has published riot and mob control in their bulletins. Our district supervisors have discussed with their men what action should be taken in case of a disorder. Discipline and command on the seas is one of our most important factors. You Lose radio contact witn your officers and they must be disciplined to stay within your command and carry out your orders. Rocks and bottles being thrown can provoke an officer into unilateral action. Of the disturbances that we have had in Atlanta, the same tactics were not used at each disorder. Depending on tactics used decisions must be determined by the commanding officer on the scene. The Commission asked when should and how much force should be used? Should a looter be shot? This is something that is already covered by State Law. The commanding officer and sometimes the patrolman would have to determine thise The Commission does recommend however, that the use of gas should be used first in an effort to stop disturbance, looting, etce Most departments have used what is regularly called "CN", The Commission highly recommended "CS" gas as do other riot manuals. What assistance can we expect from the community? We believe that good law abiding citizens do not want riots and disorders. They usually pass information that they hear along to the police department. We have trained intelligence officers that keep us informed on tensed situations. Our Crime Prevention Bureau and our Task Force are in these areas daily and nightly and gather a Lot of information from citigens,. Community leaders w 0 in the past have helped us considerably ih minor disorders and we welcome their help. The Commission speke of the police withdrawing from an area and letting community leaders try to quieten a disorder. This should be determined by the commanding officer on the scenes  Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

You are to be commended for moving so vigorous ly and i n such comprehensive thrust to meet the requirements of this Report. This is typical of you, however. I am rather thoroughly familiar with Ch a pter 14 as well as the whole r eport of the Insurance Advisory Panel submitted by Governor Richard Hughes of New Jersey. Several of my fellow Insurance Commissioners and I worked rather closely and pleasantly with both Governor Hugh e s and his executive assistant, Stanford Ross , in research and hearings prior to the drafting of the report. The proposed changes in th e Federal Disaste r Act mentioned in Chapter 14 are already under way in the Federal Congress where legisl a tion was i n troduced several days ago . The s econd section of Chapter 14 deals with the subject o f insurance , and h ere again l egis l a tion has already b een introduced in th e Fed e ral Congress t o implement the nationwide aspects of the recommendation. Th e s e include the creation of a n a tional insurance development corporation whi ch will provi de a type of reinsura nce for the industry for riot l osses du e to the disturbing withdrawa l of Europea n re i ns urers fro m th e Ameri can market. Legi s l ation h as a l s o b ee n introd u ced in th e Congress by Sena t or Russ e ll Long and Congressman Wilbur Mill s to accompli s h the proposed tax d e fe rra l features of the Panel report . ,. �Honorable Ivan Allen, Jr. - 2 - April 8, 1968 I have already held exploratory sessions with local property and casualty insurance executives on the subject of the recommended "voluntary plans" to provide fair access to property insurance for property owners. A joint industry - government group is being formed to deve lop voluntary plans and give the opportunity to the industry to respond without the neces sity of mandatory le gislation creating insurance pools to facilitat e insuring property in urban core areas. It would be helpful to have your personal assistance in this program or the benefit of the expertise of some of your department heads and municipal officials. I will be contacting you about this later in the spring . It appears, therefore, that every flank has been covered from the insurance, compensation and repair aspect of the riot problem. These areas obviously involve state and federal action . I have already testified twice and filed four separate statements with Congressional Committees in Washington on these subjects. I think that the pre sently pending federal legis lation with some quite appropriate amendments will be passed within the next six ty days. Work to be done on the insurance aspect here at the state level is progressing, and I will continue to report to you on it. Incidentally , a recent state-wide survey of insurance agents and brokers indicates virtually no di scrimination against property owners in Georgia due to race and color. There are the implications of race and geographical discriminations which themselves are minimum in Georgia. They will nevertheless be significantly studied as we begin applying these proposed solutions. Finally, l et me thank you for your good and patient l eaders hip at the municipal leve l. We must pray fervently and regularly that our City and our entire State will continue to be spare d this humiliating destruction. Understanding and patient l eadership is a part of the solution.

Text Any textual data included in the document CITY FINANCED SUMMER JOSS# FOR DISADVANTAGED YOUTHS 16-21 Using the round figure $100,066, the Federal minimum of $1.60, and 17 (May l-Septembex 1) 40-hour weeks, a total of 100 (approxinate) openings is derived. Time has not permitted an exhaustive survey of all City departments, divisions, sections, and sites, The openings bela indicate that the locating of 100 jobs is not really difficuite screening, pidcenesk, counseling and training being much more demanding. Every effort would be nade to make into permanent employees all who beceme eligible. Hope for success in this should be realistic (10<25%) and provision made for program continuance for those still ineligible at the end of the summer. Placing a small number of hard core unemployables 16-22 in each City Department or division is not the most efficient way. Due to vacations individual work forces tend te be small in summer stretching experienced help even further to keep up with work demands. Consequently even less than usual time (and inclination) is available for any sort cf on-the-job training and necessary counseling. Too, if the work unit adjusts pace and precedure to fit the new employee (s) * Of the 589 summer people employed last ('67) summer, 416 were City-financed and included such as 31 lifeguards, 59 locker attendants, 27 swimming pool managers and 50 or so recreation leaders, The Parks Department plans approximately the same number of placements this year in similar programs. another adjustment becomes necessary at the end of the summer. f. more efficient way is ta put ali se as many as possible temporary (summer) employees in seasonal Soos or to work with suseawen City operations, Examples of these are "Camp Wilderness" and the Atlanta Beautification Corps, both described belcw. By departments: ae Parks 1. Plans have been subnitted for the employment of 300 youths as recreation assistants (youth leaders). 2. Camp Wilderness: A program which would utilize from 25 to 100 youthsemale or fenale- in ground cleaning, building repair, etc. at a site on Lake Allatoona. Employees could be transported back and forth cach day or, as facilities become available, every five days. Part of the lua eGuta be spent in recreation. 3. Twelve (minimum) zoo aidesemale or females to replace and supplement prisoners. In summer this number could be increased, Duties to include light grounds maintenance, biiilding custodial work, guide service, protention and care for younger children. Successful performance leads to promotion to zoo attendant, he Several greenhouse aides and 6-10 custodial workers (male or female) at the golf courses and parks for grounds clean UP» b. Traffic Engineering: Six males year round to perform Light labor at the Sign Shop and on the street. Two males at the Signal Shop to serve as electrician helpers and pex form modezate labor duties, Six males (well screened) to sexyve as traffic checkers. Two femaies (weLlL screened) to provide clerical heip in the engineering division. c. Municipal Garages: Four males te learn and perform semieskilled work. ad. Sanitation: The Atlanta Beautification Corps (ABC) now is divided into three groups witn a total of about 50 workers and foremen., Because of its tight but flexible organization its growth potentialesllowing adequate timesis infinite. At present it could absorb 18524 young workers who would have the benefit of association with stable, more mature workers. EQOA has promoised an early increase in ABC allotment which could also increase tne number of City=-financed workers to 35 or more. The advent of spring brings tne possibility or more daversified activities by ABCegrass, flowers, shrubsewhicn increases interest as weli as responsivality. 4 e.

City Wides S-]O counselors to screen, counsel, train and generally oversee the workers hired in this operation and those in the Neighborhood Youth Corps expansion (cf MrSe Thompson's report). It is cobvieus that if the money becomes available more than enough slots can be found to provide meaningful work to hard core unemployahles, Only in several instances is any real talent or sophistication required, and all offer ladder or lateral promotional possibility in a year round progran.

That no more th an five enrollee s be ass i gned to a qualified, informe d, and concerned supervisor for counselling purposes. (New jobs with N.Y.C .. , at level above enrollee) 3. That a re gular weekly group session for all these summer enrollees-plus all of th e pre sent ly e nrolled N.Y.C. workers -- be instituted as an important, int egral, required prog ram ph ase . Groups could visit various City faciliti es by prope r advance planning ; and civic, civil, and social a menities could be the indirect· objective. 4.

Text Any textual data included in the document CITY OF ATLANTA SUMMER 1968 AND EXPANDED EMPLOYMENT OF DISADVANTAGED PERSONNEL. I, Federally Funded Program The approximately 75 federally funded "job slots" being made available to the City of Atlanta for the Summer by Economic Opportunity Atlanta and continu- ing employment of "hard-core" unemployed youth can be utilized hy the various departments as outlined roughly on the attached listing. More than 100 persons have been requested by reporting departments and, if additional federal funds are allocated, other job slots can be developed by a follow-up of previous oral and written communications with the various departments. For maximum success in this endeavor, based on unfortunate experience in a somewhat larger and more ambitious program three years ago, the following suggestions are made: 1. That screening and selective placement be effected by the City Personnel Department after initial screening by the various Neighborhood Youth Center referring agencies. 2. That no more than five enrollees be assigned to a qualified, informed, and concerned supervisor for counselling purposes.: (New jobs with N.Y.C., at level above enrollee) 3. That a regular weekly group session for all these summer enrollees~— plus all of the presently enrolled N.Y.C. workers -- be instituted as an important, integral, required program phase. Groups could visit various City facilities by proper advance planning; and civic, civil, and social amenities could be the indirect’ objective. 4, That Rule 59, Labor Laws of Georgia, 1963 edition, relating to the lifting of 30# or more for minors and women be modified to allow less restricted employment of youths age 16 and 17. (Mr. Murray Silver, State Labor Department Attorney, February 5, 1968, advised that such modification was to be effected.) I have requested assis~ tance of the State Commissioner of Labor in securing a liberalization of this restrictive rule. II. Existing Job Vacanciles Consideration is being given to whether it is feasible or legal to post- pone for the duration of the summer months the establishment of civil service registers in classes such as Auditorium Utility Worker I, Automotive Serviceman I, Clerk, Community Recreation Leader, Engineering Aide I, Incinerator Operator I, Semi-Skilled Worker, Treatment Plant Operator, Zoo Attendant, Laborer, and Waste Collector so that as many as possible of such positions may be filled by unem- ployed youth. III. Other Recommendations It is suggested that certain programs, such as the City's federally funded ABC program be expanded into a variety of community service areas or into existing City service programs; e.g., nursery service programs or Zoo staffing subordinate assignments. These expanded programs would enable employment of female older workers who are family breadwinners. Their employment on a regular basis would begin to establish the necessary stability in the family unit.  Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

The Civil Service Act also gives the Personnel Director wide latitude in estab- lishing requirements for applicants, and I have exercised the authority given me to adjust standards to meet condi- tions that have confronted the City government during the past several years.

REPORT TO NAYOR IVAN ALLEN JR. CONCERNI1,G NEEDS AND ES'l'HiATED COSTS OF IHPLEHENTING THE RECO}frIBNDATIONS OF THE ADVISORY C0rff'1ITTEE · ON CIVIL DISORDER s umnTTED BY \ Robet:t N, Wood, Chairman Atlanta Child ren an<l · Youth Services Counci l �I. In order to assess the feasibility of impl ementing the recommendations of the ~ational Advisory Commi ttee on Civil Disorder, the Atlanta Children and Youth Services Council will fir s t indic a te the extent and intensity of youth problems as related to civil disorder. Observing the report of the National Advisory Commi ttee, the Youth Council immediately noticed the extent of youth participation in Civil Disorder . For examp le, the Committee reports that the typical rioter in the summer of 196 7 was a Negro, unmarried male between the .:?.ges 15 and 24. In De troit, 61. 3% of the self reported rioters were between the ag~s 15 and 24 and 86,3% were between 15 and 35~ The arrest data indicated that 52.5% of the arrestees were between 15 and 24, and 80.8 perc ent were between 15 and 35. In short, the · typical rioter was a teenager or young adult, a life long resident of the city in which he rioted, a high school drop-out • . In Atlanta preliminary data re~e~ led tha t riot participants were between the ages 9 and 35. The overwhe lming majority of those arrested in Atlanta's riot 0£ 1967 were les s that 30 years old. These data reveal that riots are by and large initiated , prolonged , and participated in bf youth and young adults. These dat a also bear witness to the l ack of interest, energy, and resources needed to deal with youth problems and needs realistically and honestly. In Atlanta, the need for more concentrated and realistic allocation of personnel and resources to deal with youth problems increases ever year . For example 57% of Fulton County's Juve nile Delinquents were residents of Atlanta 's poverty areas in 1964. In 1965 43% of al l people arrested for ma jor crimes in Atl anta ,1ere below 17 years of age. The de linque ncy r a te h as increased llf•% fas tcr than the general population. The rccidivis t rate for F•.!:!.ton County Youth of fend ers is 40%. The general restlessness of inner city Atlc1nta Youth has increased to a dangerous level. ·in addition there are ~,000 school dropouts in Atlnnta . In 1965, lfOo/.. of the youth tested by the Fulton County Juvenile Court were 5 years or more below their prope r grade l eve l. Another lf0% were three or more y ears behind. These statis tics mere ly reflect some of the problems facing Atlnnta'i youth. Other problems are: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. high illigitimacy r a t es . incrriasing de l i nquency in afflue nt areas . increasing b e ll igerent postures by minority you th , par ticulary in civil rights activities. rebe llion on coll ege c afilpuses. youth ant i-dra ft and a nti-uar act j_viti cs. Concomitant and correl a ted to youth participation in civil d:i.sorders and riots is the ir participa tion in nonnal de linqu ent activities , individua lly and col l ective ly. Considering the broad range of needs and prob l ems facin g Atlanta'o you th the ~ 1- �Atlanta Children and Youth Services Councp specifically recommend the follo,-15.ng courses of actions aimed at reducing tensions and the possibility of civil disorders in clums and blighted areas for the summer 1968. 1. That the city of Atlarita emphasize and provide more recreationa l. prog rams and facilities in Slum areas for teenagers and young adults. If this is not geographically fo.2sible, then the city should subsidize and/or provide transportation to areas where_such programs and facilities are available. This recreational provision should be totally devoted to l a te afternoon, eveninr; an<l night activities as we ll as evening activities. 2, That the city ~ponsor an outreach Street Workers Program ~-7here outreach uorkers may go into potentially trouble are.2s and uork for periods· of time Hith detached and unreached individual youth helping them become involved :i.n meaningful employment, recreation and education.

That a ll city departments channel all youth requests, grievances, comp l a ints, etc. to the Atlanta Children and Youth Services Counci.l which is the agency established to dea l with these ma tters. 6, Tha t the work of the Crim~ Prevention Bureau and Juvenile units of the Police Depa rtment be more close ly related to the Youth Counci l in the planning and implementing of their program;. 7. That the s-wi tchboa r d in City Uall be open da ily from 5:00 p .m. until 12:00 a . m. with peroons available to receive comp l ai~ts and grievances and furnish nD.rnes and telephone numbGrs of persons to call dur ing emergency or crisis p eriods. 80 That the Atlanta Child:ren and Youth Services Council and the Corrn:evnity Re lations Coff'_-uis s ion be pr ov{ded -2- ,. �funds to hir·c commun i ty organi z ers, fo1: you th and adults in racia lly transitiona l areas such as West End, Bellwood, Grant P.:.rk, Cc!pitol Homes and Kirkwood. 9.

That the police department increa se the numb er of integrated patrols tha t oper a te in certain areas. 11. That the Mayor, or his designee, call a weekly staff meeting of all department and agency heads. All other appropriete public agenci es should b~ invited to p~rticipa te in such meetings. 12.

Opinions concerning -3- �both advantages and dis advantages are as follows : A. Establishment o~ Nei,-~hborhood .T-"'-sk force s offers the advantages of: 1. providing more ef fee tive citizen- governmental com.11mnication. 2. providing a means through which community problems may be acted upon and resolved quickly and effectively. 3. projecting the ideal that government is genuinely interested in ghetto problems. 4. restructuring governmental functions to meet city needs. The mayor of the City of Atlanta has taken the necessary action to implement the above recommendation. It is desired that such actions pay particular attention to youth problems. To overlook youth would constitute a serious disadvantage. B. Establishment of Effective Grievance Response Mechanisms offers the advantages of: 1. pro1iding citi zens with meaningful avenues for resolving grievances. 2. reducing frustrations associated with unresolved grievences. 3. providing ghetto youth with some means of being recognized as citizens. 4. providing possible employm2nt for ghetto youth.

D. Assistance for mayors a.nd .s:_ity councils offers the advantages of: 1. 2. providing mayors and city councils with needed assistance from state and federal government as uell as other source. creating of new governmen tal bodies to deal with urban problems particularly youth problems .

The dis advantage associated with this recom.--nenclation are few in proportion to Atlnnta's need s .

Establishme nt of Neighborhood City_ H.iJ.l offers the advantages of: 1. decentralization of government to meet to meet particular community needs. 2. assisting in the encouragement of favorable attitudes by residents towards government. The disadvantages of this suggestion are: H. l. deteJ:l!lining the jurisdiction and degree of responsibility which vould · enable Neighbm:hood City Hall to adequately function. 2. the probability of limited personnel and funds to can:y out this function not being provided.

Improved Politi.cal Representation offers the advantages of: 1. 2. assuring tha t the interests and needs of ghetto residents · are represented. facilitating a reallocation of community resources on a more equitable basis. The disadvantages of this suggestion are: J. 1. ghetto resid ent s are usually politically apathetic. 2. the resistance to restructuring of political bodies by powerful special int eres t groups and pers ons.

III. The Atlanta Children ind Youth Services Council is charged TTith the responsibility for coordinating all services aimed at helping youth j_n m0.tropolitan Atlanta. The recommendations of the Advisory Commissio·n, if implemented, will affect directly the Councils operation. This is due to the very obvious fact that the recorr::;1endations of the Advisory Cormnission address themselves to urban problerns v7hich in effect are youth problems. If implemented, the recommendations TTill provide the Council with staff and .other resources to broaden the scop e of its services as related. Therefore, the recommendations of the Advisory committee are revelant to the Council's responsibility only if they empha size youth.

Text Any textual data included in the document REPORT TO MAYOR IVAN ALLEN JR. CONCERNING NEEDS AND ESTIMATED COSTS OF IMPLEMENTING THE RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE ADVISORY COMMITTEE *ON CIVIL DISORDER - SUBMITTED BY Robert M. food, Chairman Atlanta Children and‘ Youth _— Services Council. J, In order to assess the feasibility of implementing the recommendations of the National Advisory Committee on Civil Disorder, the Atlanta Children and Youth Services Council will first indicate the extent and intensity of youth problems as related to civil disorder. Observing the report of the National Advisory Committee, the Youth Council immediately noticed the extent of youth participation in Civil Disorder. For example, the Committee reports that the typical rioter in the summer of 1967 was a Negro, unmarried male between the ages 15 and 24, In Detroit, 61.3% of the self reported rioters were between the ages 15 and 24 and 86.3% were between 15 and 35. The arrest data indicated that 52.5% of the arresteces were between 15 and 24, and 60.8 percent were between 15 and 35. In short, the - typical rioter was a teenager or young adult, a life long resident of the city in which he rioted, a high school drop-out. In Atlanta preliminary data revealed that riot participants were between the ages 9 and 35. The overwhelming majority of those arrested in Atlanta's riot of 1967 were less that 30 years old. These data reveal that riots are by and large initiated, prolonged, and participated in by youth and young adults, These data also bear witness to the lack of interest, energy, and resources needed to deal with youth problems and needs realistically and honestly. In Atlanta, the need for more concentrated and realistic allocation of personnel and resources to deal with youth problems increases ever year. For example 57% of Fulton County's Juvenile Delinquents were residents of Atlanta's poverty areas in 1964, In 1965 43% of all people arrested for major crimes in Atlanta were below 17 years of age. The delinquency rate has increased 114% faster than the general population, The recidivist rate for Fulton County Youth offenders is 40%. The general restlessness of inner city Atlanta Youth has increased to a dangerous level. ‘In addition there are 3,000 school drop- outs in Atlanta. In 1965, 40% of the youth tested by the Fulton County Juvenile Court were 5 years or more below their proper grade level, Another 40% were three or more years behind. These statistics merely reflect some of the problems facing Atlanta's youth, Other problems are: 1. high illigitimacy rates, 2. increasing delinquency in affluent areas 3. increasing belligerent postures by minority youth, particulary in civil rights activities, 4. rebellion on college campuses, 5. youth anti-draft and anti-war activities. Concomitant and correlated to youth participation in civil disorders and riots is their participation in normal delinquent activities, individually and collect- ively. Considering the broad range of needs and problems facing Atlanta's youth the ' Atlenta Children and Youth Services Council specifically reconmend the following courses of actions aimed at reducing tensions and the possibility of civil disorders in slums and blighted areas for the summer 1968. 1. 3. 7. 8. That the city of Atlanta emphasize and provide more recreational programs and facilities in Slum areas for teenagers and young adults. If this is not geographically feasible, then the city should subsidize and/or provide transportation to areas where such programs and facilities are available. This recreational provision should be totally devoted to late afternoon, evening and night activities as well as evening activities. That the city sponsor an outreach Street Workers ' Program where outreach workers may go into potentially trouble areas and work for periods of time with detached and unreached individual youth helping them become involved in meaningful employment, recreation and education. This program will be coordinated by the Atlanta Children and Youth Services Council and will be operated on @ contractual basis with other operationg agencies to supervise street workers.

That the Atlanta Children and Youth Services Council be given more funds to facilitate maximum effectiveness by the Council and to enable the Council to be of more use to private and public agencies in carrying out their programs. The above recomnendations are minimal when compared with Atlanta's needs. However, the Council emphasizes the necessity for their implementation if Atlanta is to reduce tensions and possible Civil for the summer of 1968. Ii. Referring to the recomnendations contained in chapted 10 of the teport of the National Advisory Cownission on Civil Disorder, the Atlanta Children and Youth Services Council feels that the advantages of their implementation for out weigh possible disadvantages. Opinions concerning both advantages and disadvantages are as follows: A.

To overlook youth would constitute a serious disadvantage. B. Establishment of Effective Grievance Response Mechanisms offers the advantages of: 1. 2. 3. 4. providing citizens with meaningful avenues for resolving grievances, reducing frustrations associated with unresolved grievences. * providing en youth with some means of being recognized as citizens providing possible employment for ghetto youth, The disadvantages associated with this recommendation depend entirely upon improper implementation which will cause: PA 2. 3.

D.

Expanded Employment by City Government of Ghetto Residents offer the advantages of: 1. employment of unemployed ghetto youth. 2, city government taking the initiativa and setting an example to other agencies regarding employment of ghetto youth, 3, adding substances to the édeal that city government serves all Atlantans. a&e The disadvantages of implementing this recomnendation are: 1. unwillingness to alter present city personnel and merit system policies. 2. likelihood of hiring ghetto residents in the same traditional least desirable jobs only. G. Establishment of Neighborhood City Hall offers the advantages of: 1. decentralization of government to meet to meet particular community needs. 2. assisting in the encouragement of favorable attitudes by residents towards government.

III. fhe Atlanta Children and Youth Services Council is charged with the responsi- bility for coordinating all services aimed at helping youth in metropolitan Atlanta. The recommendations of the Advisory Commission, if implemented, will affect directly the Councils operation. This is due to the very obvious fact that the recommendations of the Advisory Commission address themselves to urban problems which in effect are youth problems. If implemented, the recommendations will provide the Council with staff and other resources to broaden the scope of its services as related. Therefore, the recommendations of the Advisory committee are revelant to the Council's responsibility only if they emphasize youth.

Atlanta, like this Nation, does have a real chance to thwart civil disorder by taking away the platform. i.e. poor education, poor recreation, poor health, poor housing, poor social services, poor and no jobs. It's choices with youth, who have led and participated in the riots of this Nation are limited, Sound social planning and program implementation might be the answer. «10-  Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
