Popis:	This article explores areas where Norwegian Americans contributed to the burgeoning social welfare system being established in Minnesota from 1890 to 1920. The array of services developed was due in part to the belief among native-born Americans that immigrant groups should establish their own helping networks and care for themselves. The Lutheran Church played a central part in this development by initiating and sponsoring new undertakings. Issues discussed during this period are found to be still central among both immigrant groups and ‘natives’ today. Concerns regarding mother tongue, religion, integration in schools and use of existing welfare systems continue to stir up ‘natives’ and ‘settlers’ alike.
