This series contains bound and unbound: (1) progress reports (2) study reports (3) pamphlets (4) committee lists (5) panel discussions (6) addresses (7) recommendations (8) preliminary drafts (9) minutes (10) memorandums (11) correspondence. These files are from various committees associated with the White House Conferences on Children & Youth and documents the activities of the Georgia Committee on Children & Youth. Called by the President of the United States approximately every 10 years during this century, the purpose of the conferences has not been to advise or benefit any federal agency or group of agencies. Rather, the conferences have been advising the American people as a whole on the welfare of children in the United States. The conferences have served as benchmarks against which the progress of the nation in terms of its children could be measured. The Georgia Committee in turn implemented the findings of the White House Conference on Children & Youth which began in 1909.
