RURAL YOUTH GUIDANCE INSTITUTE 1939 Morris Planning Report to Board of PMSS

The following correspondence describes the difficult social and political environment in which the RURAL YOUTH GUIDANCE INSTITUTE was engaging in 1939. The report by Glyn Morris to the Board of PMSS describes the environment surrounding Pine Mountain Settlement School as an educational center at that time and how that model could provide guidance for surrounding schools.

Sponsored by The Alliance for Guidance of Rural Youth (Formerly, The Southern Woman’s Educational Alliance) with the cooperation of other agencies and individual consultants, this Rural Youth Guidance Institute was planned for October 31, 1939, to be held on the campus of Pine Mountain School.
