Record #:
18502
Abstract:
Using computers to compile county records and facilitate public programs became more common throughout the 1980s. The Rockingham County Department of Social services adapted computers to administer the food stamps program. By incorporating computers into the record keeping for this program the department was able to decrease staff time and clerical errors and keep pace with changing state and federal requirements.
