Subject: Community Organizing Tools
Hi all,
I am hoping the recent list magic can work for me.
I have recently put up a new section on the web for the Workfare Watch
Project (Ontario) titled Tools for Community Organizing and Action
Research.
http://www.welfarewatch.toronto.on.ca/toolkit/
These tools were developed by grassroots people for welfare recipients to
be able to organize groups of recipients in their communities.
I have been looking for other resources on-line to direct people to. I am
having trouble finding any that are relevant.
I found a wonderful resource at:
http://ctb.lsi.ukans.edu/graphics/
But it just does not fit, it is more for funded groups who want to help
people.
Maybe I am looking in the wrong places and people on the list could direct
me in the right direction.
Also I am wondering about resources for grass-roots research, again maybe
people can direct me in the right direction.
As a final question to people, what is the state of anti-poverty organizing
in your community of welfare recipients?
Thanks in advance for any help with this!
