SERIES V	CASE HISTORIES	DATES
9’ (18 boxes)		1937-1982

The Case Histories series provides the most comprehensive documentation on the foster children enrolled by PLAN in the various program countries in which it operated. Although this series contains the records of only a small percentage of the children assisted by PLAN, it is especially significant in that it includes records of the earliest Spanish foster children, as well as children from war-torn China and Czechoslovakia from the late 1940s and Vietnam from the late 1950s.

The contents of the Case Histories vary widely. Some contain a simple one or two page form, while others include completed case history questionnaires, information about the foster child's biological family, photographs of the foster child at various ages, letters from the foster child, correspondence, and official notices from PLAN "canceling" the foster child's enrollment in PLAN.

The Case Histories are arranged alphabetically by the name of the country from which the child comes and, with the exception of Brazil, numerically by the "case history number" assigned to that child. Case Histories from Brazil are arranged alphabetically by the name of the foster child.
