Access and Use

Acquisition Information:

The records were a gift from Family Service of St. Paul, as authorized by its board of directors on December 10, 1976. Most of the records were received in May, 1977. Additional archival records, as well as library materials, were received in October, 1979, when Family Service of St. Paul moved its offices to a new location. Following the initial gifts of records in 1976 to 1979, a supplemental shipment of records was given to the Archives between 1998 and 1999. An additional shipment was received in 2004.

Field work that resulted in the acquisition of the Family Service of St. Paul records was made possible by a grant from the National Historical Publications and Records Commission.

Alternate Format:

Microfilm EditionThe microfilm edition of the Family Service of St. Paul records is the result of a cooperative effort by the Social Welfare History Archives, the University of Minnesota, and the Division of Archives and Manuscripts, Minnesota Historical Society. The microfilm edition consists of records from Family Service of St. Paul and its predecessor organizations, The United Charities of St. Paul and The Associated Charities of St. Paul, dating from 1892 to 1972. Board of directors minutes contained in the Family Service of St. Paul records held by the Social Welfare History Archives were microfilmed in 1980 and 1981. At the same time, the Minnesota Historical Society microfilmed the records (primarily board minutes) it held of the United Charities of St. Paul. The two repositories exchanged copies of their respective microfilm holdings.The records reproduced in microfilm consist of minutes and related documents from the board of directors, executive committee, and annual meetings. The related documents typically include financial reports by the executive director, texts of resolutions adopted by the board, committee reports, lists of board and committee members, records of attendance at meetings, and correspondence. The minutes and related materials document: the activities of the association and its member organizations, both private and public. They also reflect social and economic conditions among the poor of St. Paul and changes in the philosophy, administration, and delivery of social welfare services from the 1890s to the 1970s.The microfilm edition of the Family Service of St. Paul records consists of the following rolls: Roll 1: 1892-1917, Associated Charities of St. Paul. Records, 1892– November 1914; United Charities of St. Paul. Records, December 1914–1917 (originals at Minnesota Historical Society).Roll 2: 1918-1926, United Charities of St. Paul. Records, 1918–1926 Roll 3: 1927-1945, United Charities of St. Paul. Records, 1927-March 3, 1936; Family Service of St. Paul.

Records, 1960-1972 (originals in the Social Welfare History Archives).The records are arranged chronologically by meeting date. Documents relating to a meeting follow the minutes of that meeting. Items for which no relationship to a particular meeting could be established are filed either under their date of origin (1913-1917) or with the records of the first meeting following their creation (1918-1972).The Minnesota Historical Society holds the original records dating from 1892 to 1917, while the Social Welfare History Archives holds the original records dating from 1918 to 1972. The Minnesota Historical Society owns the copyright to the microfilm of the records dating from 1892 to 1917. Inquiries regarding reproduction and publication of this microfilm should be addressed to the Minnesota Historical Society. The Social Welfare History Archives owns the copyright to the microfilm of the records for 1918 to 1926 and 1927 to 1972.

Historical Note

Family Service of St. Paul and its predecessors, Associated Charities of St. Paul and United Charities of St. Paul, provided an array of family related social services beginning in 1892. After a decade of coordinating the relief tasks of member agencies, the organization began to provide relief services directly during the 1910s. From the 1910s through the 1950s, it continued to emphasize family casework and unemployment relief while adding an array of related social and health programs. The 1960s through the 1990s saw a further broadening of programs, greater diversification of funding sources, and increased collaborative projects. Throughout the 20th Century, Family Service was influenced by and responded to changing social and economic factors; the professionalization of social work and evolving theories of family casework; and the formation of government relief programs and subsequent fluctuations in federal funding and priorities.

The Associated Charities of St. Paul was formed in 1892 to promote cooperation between existing charitable agencies and to establish a registration office with a record of the charitable work of all member agencies. At its founding, the organization was not concerned with direct relief work, but left that task to member organizations. Coordination among the agencies was achieved by the representation of member organizations on the board of directors of Associated Charities. James F. Jackson was elected the association’s first general secretary. (See the James F. Jackson papers at the Minnesota Historical Society.)

A shift from coordinating the activities of member agencies to providing direct service necessitated the association's reorganization in 1914. Many of the smaller agencies were transferring their functions to Associated Charities. As a result, the organization had assumed the characteristics of a social welfare agency with clearly defined departments. The reorganization simply recognized the programs that were already being conducted. The Associated Charities was dissolved and a new organization, the United Charities of St. Paul, was formed.

The newly reorganized agency's efforts to establish itself and provide services were hampered by a budget crisis. Financial support wavered and there was considerable inertia among volunteer workers. In spite of these difficulties, the agency established a medical clinic and dental clinics, assumed an increasing family case load, and formed a free legal aid department. During World War I, ongoing financial problems were aggravated by competition for funding and personnel. The agency closed departments and the day nursery on a seasonal basis and dismissed its legal aid attorney and registrar.

The agency faced a series of changes during the post-war years and the 1920s. A rapid increase in unemployment and the number of dependent families resulted in a growing case load immediately following World War I. United Charities' secretary reported that “family case work, with special emphasis on children’s problems is, perhaps, the feature which will have to be most strongly emphasized at this time." The agency also worked to develop a professional social work staff, reflected in the revision of hiring criteria and ties to area educational institutions. One notable achievement during this time was the use of the United Charities by University of Minnesota students for field work training in social work.

The formation of the St. Paul Community Chest in 1920 freed United Charities from fund raising and allowed the agency to anticipate more stable finances, although it continued to undergo a series of financial crisis during the early 1920s. United Charities also assumed an even greater case load as the Community Chest assigned all emergency relief work to the agency in order to reduce duplication of effort between area organizations. Dispensing food, fuel, clothing, and other types of emergency relief continued to be a major activity of the organization. In addition, the agency trimmed programs as it focused on its family service activities. In particular, the Free Medical Dispensary was transferred to The Amherst H. Wilder Foundation in 1923. During this time, United Charities also worked to develop research and family case work techniques, influence court procedures affecting families, and establish a children's department.

In 1929, Ramsey County discussed the possibility of reorganizing its Board of Control, which governed public relief. This led the three Community Chest-financed family agencies to clarify the relationships between private and public family social agencies. United Charities directed its full attention to family service and continued to handle unemployment referrals.

Continually changing social conditions, particularly the growth of public welfare during the Great Depression of the 1930s, focused the United Charities’ mission still more sharply. The cost of providing aid to increasing numbers of families and individuals was too great for private and local government resources. As the federal government began to provide relief, United Charities' professional staff worked to administer these public relief efforts.

The establishment of various public works projects under the Works Progress Administration in 1935 took some of the pressure off of the public relief program. The following year, the United Charities resumed its independent status under a new name, Family Service of St. Paul, and affiliated with the Family Welfare Association of America. These changes reflected the agency's renewed commitment to casework and other related services to families.

In 1939, Family Service assumed responsibility for local travelers aid activities following a survey of travelers aid in the area by the National Association of Travelers Aid Societies. Started under YWCA auspices in 1907, the program rendered services to travelers and transients in need. With the United States' entry into World War II, Family Service’s total program was geared to meet wartime needs. Special projects included the establishment of an information center for military personnel who needed welfare or family services. Local draft boards referred those who presented problems beyond the scope of the board’s own programs.

A 1945 study, undertaken to plan for postwar readjustments, concluded that Family Service should aspire to be St. Paul’s “largest non-sectarian agency to handle diagnostic and treatment services and preventive work" and "an important source of referral to the state agencies for economic aid and long time care and supervision.” The organization continued to provide family services and legal aid; undertake research projects; and experiment with new methods of handling case work. It also developed new programs, such as: the homemaker service, direct services for children, parent-child boarding houses, working homes for adolescents, debt adjustment programs, and mental health services.

During the late 1940s and early 1950s, Family Service cooperated with the Ramsey County Welfare Board and other agencies in a research and demonstration project designed to identify multi-problem families and serve them more effectively through the systematic, coordinated efforts of social agencies. (The records of the Family Centered Project, which include the pilot Family Unit Report Study, are also held by SWHA. See SW017, St. Paul Family Centered Project records.)

During the 1970s, Family Service expanded to meet challenges brought on by economic recession and an increasing divorce rate. Under the direction of Ron Reed, the agency developed programs designed to serve changing families. The agency also established alcohol and drug abuse services. Many new programs were funded from sources other than the United Way, broadening Family Service’s financial base. In 1977, Family Service established an Advocacy Committee, which worked with community groups on initiatives to change charitable contribution tax laws, city housing ordinances, and domestic violence legislation.

The 1980s brought a rising demand for services. Increasing demands on the agency coincided with budget cuts, resulting in a reevaluation of the agency’s program priorities and the formation of new collaborative efforts. For example, in the late 1980s and early 1990s, Family Service assumed the programs of or worked closely with East Communities Family Center, Jewish Vocational Service’s COPE program, Midway Hospital’s Center for Domestic Abuse, the Rent Assistance Program, and the Minnesota Center for Grief and Loss. In 2004, Family Service merged with the Children's Home Society of Minnesota to form Children's Home and Family Service.

Collection Scope and Content Note

The Family Service of St. Paul records contain minutes, annual reports, financial records, statistics, case reports, articles of incorporation, newsletters, membership lists, policy and procedural statements, departmental records, studies, and photographs documenting the activities of Family Service and its predecessors from 1892 to 2002. The records chronicle the formation and early work of the organization as well as its relations with public and private agencies and growing emphasis on family casework. They also document Family Service's administration, finances and programs, including those in the areas of family service, unemployment relief, legal aid, health and mental health, substance abuse, and domestic violence.

Minutes and related documents from the meetings of the board of directors (1918-2002) make up a substantial portion of the records. The minutes and related materials document the activities of the agency and its member organizations; its relationships with other social service organizations, both private and public; social and economic conditions among the poor of St. Paul; and changes in the philosophy, administration, and delivery of social welfare services. Documents associated with board meetings typically include financial reports, statistics regarding services rendered, narrative reports by the executive director, and texts of resolutions adopted by the board. Lists of board and committee members, records of attendance at meetings, and correspondence are also included.

The minutes are arranged by meeting date. Documents related to a meeting are filed after the minutes of that meeting. Items for which no relationship to a particular meeting could be established have been added to records of the first meeting following their date of creation. The minutes for years 1927 to 1972 are also available on microfilm (see SWF21). Minutes of the boards of Associated Charities of St. Paul dating from 1892 to November, 1914, and United Charities of St. Paul dating from December, 1914, to 1917 are also available on microfilm.

The Family Service records also include reports from annual meetings. Most of the annual meeting reports date from 1928 to 2002, although a smaller group of reports dates from 1894 to 1909. The only reports available for the period from 1909 to 1928 are those for 1911 and 1916. The reports contain information on agency projects, services rendered, financial conditions, and listings of member organizations. Annual meetings occurred in December during the years 1927 to 1932 and in February or March after 1933. It appears as though no annual meetings were held in 1933, 1944, 1945, or 1948.

A large portion of the Family Service records relates to the activities of departments, committees, and programs within the agency from1916 to 2002. In particular, the records document the United Charities' children’s department and legal aid department from1924 to1935. The minutes of the Service and Relief Committee, the Staff Development Committee, and Family Service staff meetings are also available. Other, more recent committees documented in the files include the: advocacy, continuous quality improvement, development, diversity, finance, long range planning, management, multi disciplinary, nominating, planning, program, strategic planning, and technical advisory committees. The board minutes and administrative papers of the East Communities Youth Service Bureau and Family Center (1975-1994) and South Suburban Family Service (1952-1989) are also included in the records.

Among the individuals most prominently represented in the records are the agency's secretaries/executive directors A. A. (Aldred Arthur) Heckman, Charles Birt, Dawson Bradshaw, and Ron Reed.

		Series 8. Statistics and Case Reports 1935-1994, (2.6 feet )   Note Series 8, Statistics and Case Reports, contains reports showing case data for each Family Service staff member from 1935 through 1950 and agency-wide statistics dating from 1945 to the mid 1970s. The case reports show the number of recurring cases that were carried forward from the preceding month; the number of new cases received; the total number of open cases; and the number of cases that were closed. In addition, the reports include: figures on the total amount given in relief funds; coded entries on classification of treatment, sources of client referrals, and problems diagnosed during intake; and figures on the number of interviews with clients or other parties. The reports also appear to show the number of meetings, conferences, classes and talks attended or given by the staff member. The series also contains agency-wide statistical reports that show the sources of clients' referrals, the problems diagnosed at intake, client employers and occupations, and a wide range of services provided to clients. The reports show monthly totals for each category. The statistical reports list specific categories rather than relying on coded data like that used in the case reports. As a result, they may provide a more usable source of information on agency clients, programs, and services than the case reports. The series also contains a small amount of statistical information from the mid 1990s.
