Office of Mrs. Ford's Press Secretary Telephone (202) 456-2164 MRS. GERALD R. FORD Birthdate: April 8, 1918 Mrs. Betty Ford came' to the White House determined to make the mansion as warm, friendly, and open as the Ford family homes have always been. Her own lively interests in the arts, handi- capped children and women's rights have been combined with a focus on home and family life. Mrs. Ford was born Elizabeth Anne Bloomer in Chicago, Illinois. Her family moved to Grand Rapids, Michigan, when she was three and she began her study of dance there when she was eight. After graduating from high school in 1936, Mrs. Ford attended two summer sessions of the Bennington School of Dance, where she first met Martha Graham. Her dance career continued in New York City, where she joined one of Miss Graham's troups and modeled with the John Powers Agency. She returned to Grand Rapids in 1941 and became fashion coordinator for a local department store. She also formed her own dance group and taught dance to handicapped children. Only weeks after their 1948 marriage, Gerald and Betty Ford moved to Washington, where he began his political career as representative from Michigan's 5th District and she began hers as a wife and mother. Within seven years, the four children were born. During the 1950's and 1960's, Betty Ford's world centered on her active family of three sons and one daughter. Her outside activities primarily involved the Episcopal Church and the Republican Party. Three years ago with the two younger children almost out of high school, Mrs. Ford thought of going back to work outside the home. But before she found such a job, her husband became Vice-President and in August, 1974, President. Those jobs gave her new responsi- bilities which used her experience in entertaining, meeting people, and keeping a busy schedule. In White House entertaining, Mrs. Ford has relaxed the official style to make it more people-oriented. The decorations often are American handicrafts, and the guest lists reflect the diverse interests of the entire Ford family. Mrs. Ford's lifelong enthusiasm for the arts has shown up in decora- tions, White House guests, and, most especially, in her own involve- ment in artistic events. Her schedule shows an active interest in handicapped children and her statements a firm commitment to women's rights. Today, the Ford home has a very special address, and as President and First Lady, Gerald and Betty Ford have unique responsibilities. But the Fords and their four children, Mike, 25, Jack, 23, Steve, 19, and Susan, 18, continue to be a close-knit family despite geographical separations. # # # RADIO in Wm Laneaster memorial School car basketball- TIP retarded goingsters goan Sabatini- sph drive to raise funds for SW 1st Nm- primary 6-13ag selfcontained class severe problems (eight) will event go to sheltered wheng fund raising now for sheltered whishp-have to use school. need to build older all kinds of funraises so far- $14,000 to go- their start to build now Salem assoc for Retard Citizens some skills of purpose to train, spuse, (work & living get radeo sra- need to move prem in 1st rm to left (of to reaft) Peterkape OPP side of be count FORD << shetterad wherey- 8 kids 13 16-28grs Stup can l notify wines < portable- press nashua notel earliest 11:45 - likely noon H.I.

Hamp. Fill SALEM WORKSHOP IS A SHELTERED WORKSHOP FOR HANDICAPPED INDIVIDUALS SIXTEEN YEARS OF AGE AND OLDER It's aim is to assist the handicapped, whether it be retardation or A other physical or emotional limitations, to progress toward normal living and a productive vocational status. While controlled individual training in work habits and attitudes is the primary purpose, emphašis is placed on Independent Living Skills and Social Adjustment. Job placement services are provided when client is ready. Contract work is obtained from industries to be completed by the clients. Clients are paid piecework according to the job that they are working on. WHERE WE ARE NOW! Salem Workshop is a Satelite program of the Wm. J. Moore Center in Manchester. We have 11 clients, 7 full-time, 4 part-time. The part-time clients are participating in a special program at the high school. They, according to their individual abilities, attend some classes at the high school. The full-time clients receive their workshop training in Salem. They are transported to Manchester 2 or 3 days a week for classes and specialized programs. As the clients usually need more than work training, they are attending classes at the Moore Center. According to their particular needs they attend: Basic Ed: telling time, identifying coins and making change, measur- ing, reading and math skills according to their ability, etc. Independent Living Skills: Cooking, cleaning, telephone usage, use of appliances, hygiene, ironing, etc. Prevocational: Care and use of tools, discrimination, concepts, etc. Social and Personal Adjustment: To reach an acceptable social aware- ness, appropriate interpersonal relationships, to be able to adjust to every day situations. SPECIALIZED PROGRAMS AVAILABLE AT THE MOORE CENTER ARE: Food Service: Complete training in every phase of Food Service. Preparationand serving of food on a cafeteria level. Operation of dishwasher and other related tasks. Canteen: connter work, serving customers, sashiering, ordering and receiving of supplies. Janitorial Program: Complete training using industrial equipment in maintainence of a facility. SOCIAL SERVICE: Another important service. Social workers who maintain contact with the families of clients. To inform them of client's goals and objectives to work in cooperation with the LIBRARI training center. With reinforcement at home the client will develop potential much sooner and more fully. SALEM WORKSHOP *** WHERE ARE WE GOING? We are now housed in a classroom at the Lancaster School. As we realize now fortunate we are to have the cooperation of the school department, a classroom is for from an ideal setting. It should be a realistic job setting, not an elementary school. We are limited in the number of clients we can service, We are limited in the type of contract we can accept because of size and facilities. We are limited in providing the types of programs and services to meet the needs of each client. We now operate on a school calendar year. We would be unable to procure contracts from industry independently on this basis. It is next to impossible to have clients think of the workshop as anything but school on this present basis. IF THE SAL EM WORKSHOP COULD OBTAIN A NEW FACILITY! IT WOULD HAVE THE POTENTIAL FOR GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT TOWARD INDEP ENDENCE. We would be open to more diversified contracts from industries. We could provide programs and services now provided by the Moore Center. This would not only relieve many transportation problems, but be able to involve clients in areas amore often to meet their individual needs. It would also leave openings at the Moore Center for clients from that area. We would be able to service other handicapped individuals who are now unable to attend any training center because of lack of space and availability. We would be able to develop a specialized training program other t an provided by the Moore Center and make it a cooperative venture to meet the needs of diversified vocational training. We hope to hire and train personnel to eventually work for SARC INDICATED by the Salem Wordshop growth pattern. They would receive their training at t e Moore Center to benefit from their experience. We hope to cooperate with Salem Schools and Community Social Agencies, informing them of the availability of this program to benefit all handicapped inviduals.
