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! S
