Book excerpt: Excerpt from Directory of State, County, and Municipal Training Schools Caring for Delinquent Children in the United States The need for a directory of training schools caring for delinquent children was brought to the attention of the Children's Bureau by its Advisory Committee on Training Schools for Socially Maladjusted Children, which recommended that the Bureau publish such a directory. The directory herewith presented, prepared by the Child Guidance Division of the Bureau, includes only training schools under public auspices whose primary function is care of delinquent children. The information is presented in two sections: (1) State training schools and (2) county and municipal training schools. The section on State training schools lists 115 institutions, and includes those under the auspices of the State government in the 48 States, the schools serving the District of Columbia, and the Territorial and Insular schools in Hawaii and Puerto Rico. The section on county and municipal training schools lists 43 schools under county and municipal auspices that reported the care of delinquent children fol lowing court disposition; detention homes and other institutions that were reported as providing only temporary care pending court. Hear ing are excluded. State departments of public welfare supplied the lists of county and municipal training schools from which were selected those schools caring for children following court disposition whose primary function was the care of delinquent children.
