Abstract

This paper describes the route by which community organization has come to its present interest in organizing among the "grass roots" population and attempts to support th. rationale, viability, and future of such organizational efforts in light of the fact that almost all welfare services are currently provided by government It is because social welfare is moving to the point at which it serves a total community of citizen-clients, the author states, that community organization should concern itself with organizing the grass-roots population to participate in welfare planning. Such activity calls for new techniques, which are spelled out. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
