Community Planning Resources on Line

[2002] The Community Planning Resource Guide is for people interested in learning more about creating and sustaining partnerships under the Massachusetts Adult Basic Education (ABE) Community Planning Initiative. Inside the guide you will find book reviews, references to print and online resources, personal narratives and advice from community planning practitioners working in ABE Community Planning Partnerships across the state. This guide was prepared in collaboration between SABES West and SABES Central community planning staff.

[2002] Community Planning in Action is a collection of the experiences of ABE Community Planning Coordinators and Partnership Members during year one of the five year DOE grant cycle (July 2000-June 2001). The three sections of CP in Action contain personal accounts by Community Planning Coordinators of their work, a summary of the responses of many programs to some common questions about their work, and the full text of their responses to these questions and the contact information of the contributors.
