Abstract | This annual report to Congress on Title XX of the Social Security Act reports on the operation of the 1976 fiscal year program. Preceding the report are descriptive highlights of the program. Title XX of the Social Security Act changes the role and relationships of the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare; the individual states; and interested citizens with respect to planning, operating, and accounting for the Federal-State social services program. The most notable change and key provision under this legislation is the requirement that each state establish a formal process that includes public participation in the development of the program. The report is divided into three major sections. Section one contains a brief history of social services legislation prior to Title XX (enacted October 1, 1975) and a description of the major features of Title XX. Section two, the core of the report, outlines state implementation of Title XX and describes state approaches to planning and the services provided. Section three describes HEW evaluation and technical assistance activities offered to state offices with respect to the content of individual services programs, program planning, reporting, administration, and evaluation. Several appendices conclude the document, including a glossary of terms, charts, tables, and graphs on services provided to recipients, categories of recipients, and expenditure data by states.
