Abstract | Intended for agency field personnel who assist in local community development (CD) efforts, this publication is the second of three making up an intensive training manual for community development. Using an inservice training approach, this part of the manual contains four instructional units: rationale for CD training, what CD is (CD as process, program, method, movement, manifestation of democracy), why be involved (aspects of social change creating the need for CD activities), and what one needs to know about CD (community dynamics, agency involvement, problem solving, conflict, change strategies). The manual presents an amplified content outline for each unit, with margin space for notes by trainers or trainees, worksheets for individual and small group participation, and visuals for overhead projection. It includes resource papers on the definition of community development, growth and development, change (in metropolitan and nonmetropolitan settings), guidelines for a good community, the community coordinator, citizen participation, decision making for development, understanding community, alternative development approaches, and process of community problem solving. Workshop exercises, with accompanying worksheets, focus on applying subject matter to participants' work situations, clientele problems, alleviating programs, and impact of change on local communities.
