Please note

Sorry, we don't have images or video for this item.

In every city, town or village there are cases of human misery and failure that usually remain hidden. But every day a few are thrust into view, to become matters for the police or problems for the social worker. This film demonstrates the work, methods and organisation of a large social agency in the province of Quebec.
