Neighborhood-Based Services: Organizational Change and Integration Prospects
Abstract
Prospects for service integration between settlement
houses, or traditional neighborhood centers that offer services for
individuals ranging from preschool children to the elderly, and
family resource centers, agencies that provide support for families
and early childhood education programs, are explored in this
Rochester, New York, case study. Although the target populations of
these two types of organizations overlap, service integration is not
likely in the short run due to differing organizational philosophies
and the adaptation of each organization to unique funding sources.
Increased funding pressures and demands for greater efficiency in
service delivery may make collaboration more attractive in the
future. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
