PRESIDENTIAL ACTIVITY:
National Decade of Disabled Persons- President Reagan signed
a proclamation designating 1983-1992 as the National Decade
of Disabled Persons. The President encouraged, "In
partnership between the public and private sector, among
national, state and local organizations and between the
disabled and the abled we can win the battle for dignity,
equality and increased economic opportunity for all
Americans."
Energy Assistance Briefing - The Office of Private Sector
Initiatives sponsored a briefing to highlight
privately-funded energy assistance programs. Vice President
George Bush and Secretary Margaret M. Heckler addressed
guests representing 74 local utility distributors and
commended utilities for their individual efforts to help low
and fixed income citizens pay winter heating bills.
Typically, under this type of program, utilities offer their
customers an opportunity to add an amount of their choice to
their monthly utility bills as contributions to an energy
assistance fund. In most instances, local community based
service organizations work with the utilities to identify
those in need. Because both the utility and the non-profit
organization absorb administration costs for the program, all
contributions are passed in full to low income consumers.
White House Food, Clothing, Toy Drive - In cooperation with
General Services Administration and United Way of America,
the annual Food, Clothing, and Toy Drive will be held during
the week of December 12 through the 16. Collection boxes
will be placed throughout the complex and United Way will
distribute donations.
PARTNERSHIPS IN EDUCATION:

History and the Lemuel Penn Career Center and the
Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden and the Duke
Ellington School for the Arts have formed. The
Career Awareness Program is designed to encourage
and aid students to take advantage of the wealth of
information and experience available through the
Smithsonian. The museums involved arrange school
assemblies and behind-the-scenes "career" tours. In
addition, the Smithsonian is currently examining the
possibility of a series of curatorial seminars for
one or more "adopted" schools in the Washington
Metropolitan area.

PRESIDENTIAL ACTIVITY:
Partnerships in Education - Last week President Reagan
announced the formation of the national Partnerships in
Education Program. Vice President Bush also attended the
ceremony.
In recognition of the responsibility we all share to ensure
that our children receive the education they deserve,
President Reagan encouraged volunteers from businesses,
government agencies and other local organizations to adopt
local schools. Some of the ways in which volunteers may help
the schools include tutoring students, establishing
scholarship funds, organizing and coaching athletic programs,
donating equipment and furniture or by providing classroom
instruction.
Leading by example, President Reagan announced that the White
House has adopted the Congress Heights Elementary School in
Washington, D.C. Last Friday, sixty fifth and sixth graders
from the school were invited for a private tour of the White
House. Following the tour, the students assembled on the
South Lawn to watch Marine One take-off for Camp David. As
they left the residence to board the helicopter, the
President and Mrs. Reagan greeted each of the students.
On Wednesday, the D.C. Superintendent of Schools and the
principal of Congress Heights met with PSI staff to determine
ways in which White House staff can best assist the students
and faculty. The Office of Private Sector Initiatives will be
responsible for the coordination of White House staff
volunteer activity.
Hugh O'Brian Youth Foundation - The Hugh O'Brian Youth
Foundation presented President Reagan with the Albert
Schweitzer Award. This award is the highest honor bestowed
by the foundation and is given to individuals who have
distinguished themselves as educators and motivators of youth
through their personal example of leadership. Hugh O'Brian
and Robert O. Anderson, Chairman of the Board of ARCO made
the presentation.
World Food Day - President Reagan signed a proclamation in
observance of World Food Day. During the ceremony, the
President emphasized the commitment of private sector
assistance this nation has made to developing countries and
regions requiring our help over the past 25 years.
United Way - During a nationally televised appearance this
month, President Reagan endorsed the United Way fall
campaign. The President encouraged citizens to support
United Way programs through their donations.
