Description
Frequently well-intentioned voluntary civic and social organizations
embark upon projects intended as beneficial additions
to the health and social service complex available
within a community. All too frequently such projects are
inappropriate, are in conflict with already established programs,
and perhaps if developed may well pose a burden on a
given community's resources despite the commendable motives
of the voluntary organization. The purpose of this
thesis is to develop a simplified model procedure by which
a given community can be surveyed as to the appropriateness
of a given project as well as to judge the potential
for financial viability. The procedure will be in keeping
with the known precepts of effective community social and
health planning.
