Power structures, social and political contexts, population changes, and principles of serving all students are examined as they affect school and community relations. Students will explore principles of community development such as autonomy, self-determination, and the integration of community resources. Students will also examine understanding, group dynamics, community organizing, interagency cooperation, financial resources, and evaluation.
