DescriptionThese minutes from the May 13, 1949, meeting of the Displaced Persons Committee, review the Committee's plans for assisting the New Jersey Governor's office with the establishment of the New Jersey State Commission on Displaced Persons. The Committee, which was a subgroup of the New Jersey Welfare Council, discusses important issues for displaced persons, including health, education, employment, and human rights. The Council for Human Services in New Jersey, formerly known as the New Jersey Welfare Council, was an umbrella group for social welfare agencies and social workers in the state. After the Second World War, the Council focused on helping displaced persons from central Europe who had immigrated to New Jersey.
