Book Creating and Benefiting from Institutional Collaboration  Models for Success

Download or read book Creating and Benefiting from Institutional Collaboration Models for Success written by Dennis McGrath and published by Jossey-Bass. This book was released on 1998-11-08 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Collaboration allows organizations to leverage scarce resources, reduce costs, link complementary competencies, and increase speed and flexibility-but collaboration can also deeply affect the internal structure, management style, identity, and mission of participating institutions as they learn to coordinate their collective resources. This volume of New Directions for Community Colleges examines the many ways collaboration both benefits and alters the participating organizations, offering practical examples and lessons learned that can be used by a variety of institutions in their efforts to foster collaborative relationships. The authors explore how the community college can serve as a nexus between high schools and four-year institutions; how neighborhood-based collaborations can promote access and educational opportunity for at-risk students; how to integrate collaboration into the leadership role of the community college president; and much more. This is the 103rd issue of the quarterly journal New Directions for Community Colleges.

Book Analytical Skills for Community Organization Practice

Download or read book Analytical Skills for Community Organization Practice written by Donna Hardina and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2002-05-01 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This guide promotes the use of analytical skills in community organization practice, including information gathering and processing, legislative research, needs assessment, participatory action research, political analysis, population forecasting and social indicator analysis, power analysis, program development and planning, resource development, budgeting, and grant writing,. These analytical methods, often used in practice but seldom systematically discussed, assist the practitioner in identifying community problems, planning interventions, and conducting evaluations. The text explicates a problem-solving model that identifies concepts and theories underlying practice, methods for problem identification and assessment, and techniques for goal setting, implementation, and evaluation. It features extensive listings of Web sites for community organization practice and is dedicated to the idea that the community organizer, to be truly effective, must be prepared to be an active learner.

Book Progressive Community Organizing

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second edition of Progressive Community Organizing offers a concise intellectual history of community organizing and social movements while also providing practical tools geared toward practitioner skill building. Drawing from social-constructionist, feminist and critical traditions, Progressive Community Organizing affirms the practice of issue framing and offers two innovative frameworks that will change the way students of organizing think about their work. Progressive Community Organizing is ideal for both undergraduate and graduate courses focused on community theory and practice, community organizing, community development, and social change and service learning. The second edition presents new case studies, including those of a welfare rights organization and a youth-led LGBTQ organization. There are also new sections on the capabilities approach, queer theory, the Civil Rights movement, and the practices of self-inquiry and non-violent communication. Discussion of global justice has been expanded significantly and includes an account of a transnational action-research project in post-earthquake Haiti. Each chapter contains discussion questions, written and web resources, and a list of key terms; a full, free-access companion website is also available for the book.

Book Community Organization and Development

Download or read book Community Organization and Development written by Steve Clarke and published by University of Wales Press. This book was released on 2017-03-23 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book traces the development of community development/organization as it evolved separately in Britain and the United States, and how the social and political situations in each country determined the various shapes and directions it took. In presenting a comprehensive history of the subject, Community Organization and Development draws on local and international factors that have helped to shape its application and fortunes across varied settings. Recent economic and social pressures, the changing demographics of developed economies, and the rise of social and cultural diversity all contribute to the need for a comprehensive model that can be deployed to effect the necessary social changes required for sustained change with stability. The history of this intervention technique throws up many examples from which insight can be gained for the present time, and Wales is used as an example of how national policy and local development could be combined for maximum effect. Community development should become reliable and quantifiable, and the comprehensive model developed here demonstrates how and when it should be deployed.
