In 1990 the Minnesota legislature funded demonstration projects for integrating programs for high-risk children in the schools. This study surveyed thirty-one integration projects in Minnesota in 1992. All were contacted by phone and seven were chosen for on-site focus group discussions. This report presents an overall view of the problems these projects confronted, case studies of seven strong programs, recommendations, and a prototype of how to set up an integration project for school-age children. The work was also presented in capsule form in a CURA Reporter article in September 1993.enBenton CountyCass CountychildrenClay CountycountiesDakota Countydemonstration projectsfamilyKandiyohi CountyMinnesotaMorrison Countyprogram coordinationRamsey Countysocial servicesStearns CountysurveysReport
