Planning for Social Change: Dilemmas for Health Planning
An ecological or interdisciplinary approach to planning at the community level is suggested in which the causes and effects of social change are incorporated into the planning process. To identify community resources and attitudes toward change, it is necessary to identify the social institutions in the community which have been most adaptable and least adaptable to social change. Identification of covert health needs is dependent upon the ability to assess the interaction of community subsystems. While facts are important, the planner's knowledge of the community must not be limited to quantitative data, but should encompass the entire life style of the community. Because the community and the planning process are constantly changing, continual evaluation is necessary. An illustration of the approach places the planner at the center of the planning structure where he can focus on the interaction of social institutions and organizations. The Highland Park-Pierce Neighborhood House project in Topeka, Kansas, illustrates the use of a community center to serve the changing needs of the neighborhood. The health planner must plan in the context of a changing system while he is trying to effect change.
