Public Help “Was Welfare Started to help people in need or to help people become depended' I am for helping my neighbor, but when does help turn into support' When does it become my responsibility to take care of your responsibility' My grandmother had 14 children 10 girls and four boys. Out of 10 girls seven of them is now on some form of public assistance. I have an aunt Vanita who is a single mother of five children struggling to survive while working 20-25 hours a week for about seven dollars per hour. Vanita tries to be a proud woman who brags about her self-reliance and her ability to take care of her children with out the help of welfare or child support. Vanita does not receive a monthly welfare check but she does require some assistance from the government. One form of public assistance Vanita receives is from the Family Independency Agency (FIA), which administers the government food stamp program and Medicaid. The FIA provides Vanita with $ 475.00 a month worth of food vouchers. Of course Vanita and her children do not eat that many groceries in a month. Vanita sell part of her food stamps each welfare, children, federal, states, poor, work, people, assistance, vanita, system, state, relief, aid, security, program, government, public, mothers, food, families, congress, years, tamika, single, provide, president, out, month, local, help, dependent, roosevelt, persons, next, needy
