Description:
This report examines the postwar adjustment of relocated Japanese Americans during the 18 months following the closure of the Japanese American relocation centers in 1945. Begun in July 1946, the study was "to analyze the effects of the evacuation from the west coast, and to complete the study of the relocation aspects, such as the new distribution of the people, and the adjustment problems that relocated people continued to face...." Areas chosen for intensive study included Chicago, Denver, Los Angeles, and Seattle, with supplementary study in the Santa Clara Valley, the Snake River Valley, and Salt Lake City. Findings were compiled from recorded interviews with representative Japanese Americans within these communities as well as from published material. Findings are organized in the following chapters: The relocation; Public acceptance; Economic adjustment; Housing adjustment; Social adjustment; and Resettlement.
