REMARKS: Overall Public Assistance caseloads remained stable during May. However,
Pood Stamp sales increased due to the expected influx of migrant worker families.
In May, 1977. the Department worked with 198 new migrant households. May, 1978 showed
an increase to 240 households.
Although Aid to Dependent Children households with one parent increased by 7 households
during May, this was more than offset by a reduction of 19 households which included
unemployed men. The May, 1978 count of 30 Aid to Dependent Children families with
unemployed men is the lowest count the Department has experienced in over three years.
Other Public Assistance caseloads did not show remarkable change. Expenditures (excluding
Old Age Pension) for May were $578,338. This amount was $53,008 higher than April and
_ $108,373 higher than the same month in 1977. The administrative transfer of $42,000
for the purchase of the Youth Shelter Home to the County General Fund accounted for most
of this increase over the prior month. Department spending remains within budget with 4
40.2% expended compared with the 41.7% "on-target" rate. b
O
On the casework side of the Department's activity, loads have increased compared with May, n
1977. For example, Child Protection cases (Abuse and Neglect) have increased from 245
hn"ceholds to 302 (19% up) , Youth Service cases 187�tq 202, an %% increase.
