Summary

"Between January and June, 1955, the survey team of three consultants to the Director of Institutions and the State Board of Social Welfare made visits to the seven state institutions, providing residential care to children.

The survey included: Kansas Children's Home, Kansas Receiving Home for Children, Girls' Industrial School, Boys' Industrial School, Parsons State Training School, Winfield State Training School, and the Children's Section, Topeka State Hospital"--Introduction.
