[URBANTH-L]advocacy planning/citizen participation and antipovertyefforts

[Greenbaum, Susan]

The Dudley Street Initiative in Boston, which has a website that can be found on Google by keying in the name, is a good example of a long term project.  The book, Streets of Hope, by Holly Sklar and Peter Medoff, tell the story very effectively.

I've just received the following query from a student in my department.
Can anyone suggest some useful leads?  Much appreciated---Rae Bridgman

"I am writing a paper which explores antipoverty efforts and whether
advocacy planning and citizen participation in the past have been
successful in incorporating concerns of the poor (including the homeless)
into some form of action. I will probably look at examples that have been
unsuccessful and successful.  I was wondering if you would know of any
good sources (articles or books) that would be useful."
