Abstract

The article presents information on a bulletin, "A Community Looks at Itself: A Method of Self-Study for Small Communities As Developed at Weeping Water." This bulletin is the outgrowth of Nebraska's participation in the Mid-Century White House Conference on Children and Youth and is itself an expression of the interstimulation of national, state, and local group thinking. The immediate circumstance leading to the preparation of the bulletin was the widespread expression of a need for materials which would aid in developing ways and means to carry out programs for improvement of conditions for youth and children in local communities. This expression of need came to the Nebraska Council on Children and Youth from all parts of the state. The Council asked the cooperation of specialists from the University of Nebraska Graduate School of Social Work in developing a self-appraisal device which could be used by Nebraska communities desiring to analyze their services to children and youth.
