What kind of community organizing are responding CBOs involved in?
100 of the responding organizations identified themselves or were identified as being involved in community organizing activities, 20 were identified as being somewhat involved and 45 as not involved in community organizing activities. As explained earlier, the 29 organizations who directly responded “no” to this question have been excluded from the survey results. With the remaining (166) surveys, when a definite “yes” response was not given, respondents were categorized into a “yes,” “no” or “somewhat” involved in community organizing category based on their mission statement and the examples that they listed (see definition given in previous section). Examples of community organizing given in this section included: beautifying neighborhoods and pride days, block club meetings, resident councils, crime prevention, voter registration, welfare reform, housing deterioration, absentee landlords, anti-beer & wine permitting, organizing marches/rallies, and working to improve schools.
