Governor's Conference on Mental Health, 1949
Scope and Content
The collection, reflecting Combs' interests in many aspects of juvenile law beyond those in which she had personal involvement, includes reports, conference proceedings, committee minutes, studies, seminar and institute materials, pamphlets, Combs' own lawyerly analyses of problems and topics, legislation, speech transcripts, and memoranda to Court Referees. Of historical interest are a series of studies on juvenile delinquency and probation (4.2) published by the Commonwealth Club of San Francisco in the 1920s (4.2), a 1936 report to the public entitled "Your Los Angeles County Juvenile Court" (3.2), and a 1938 judge's call for reformed legislation entitled "An Appeal on Behalf of the Childhood of California" (2.1).
