We are talking about Government using services provided under an agreement with a religiously oriented. or a religious organization or group to do the work of the poverty program in those instances where the church related group is best able to do that work. or. indeed. is uniquely qualified and able to do that work. I think we can understand this amendment better if we look at a few situations in which churchrelated organizations have entered into contracts with the Office of Economic Opportunity. For instance. in my own State of Michigan. the Michigan Council of Churches and the Michigan Catholic Conference. together. have created an organization to provide services to migrant workers in the State. It is named Michigan Migrant Opportunity Inc. It is the only organization in Michigan providing the kind of service to migrants contemplated under the poverty program. Similar programs under similar auspices are operating in at least one other State. The National Council of Catholic Women. the National Council of Jewish Women. the United Church Women. and the National Council of Negro Women have set up an organization known as WICR that is helping the Womens Job Corps to find young women who want and need the Job Corps program.
