RSCJ

 Rosemary was among the first to go into the "Inner City" in Omaha to tutor and aid minorities to find better jobs, This was "real life" and opened up a 
field of work in which she could follow her call to the "people", to help them with their problems of education, housing and jobs. She became probation officer of the juvenile court. Later in 1968 she became director of Head Start in Chicago, advising 5 county-based programs. This eventually led to Director of C.E.T.A., counseling the unemployed for job training. (From her obituary.  Click on Rosemary's name to see more.)
