The NCJW Schools for Community Action, an education-for-action program to close the information gap between what is happening in Washington and what the local citizen knows, will cover the plight of the minority-group child, problems of public school financing and control, needs of youngsters from culturally deprived homes who start school at a disadvantage and the impact of automation on everyday life.
