In Belle Glade, Florida, a slum populated by Blacks, Whites, Hispanics, migrant farmworkers, and Haitians, where the incidence of most major health risks was far greater than anywhere else in the state, a program was planned and partially implemented which aimed to provide health services to at-risk, disadvantaged teenage mothers and their infants. To attain program goals, an executive board was formed which consisted of 12 professional leaders in the fields of early childhood education and pre- and post-natal health and social services. Board members planned a program of prenatal intervention and follow-up, conceived a strategy for securing building lots, planned building spaces, implemented a fund-raising program, planned a program for infant development/stimulation, and built community support networks. Within a period of 12 months, a Director was employed full-time, funds were committed for a full-time pediatric nurse, a volunteer program was implemented, architectural drawings for a facility were approved, building lots were secured, the Ford Foundation had made a site visit to consider a Haitian Intervention Research Project, start-up funds were obtained, a funding plan was projected, and the program was adopted as a model for community action.
