The Center for Community Development Annual Report, FY 1985-86. Volume II, Addendum 7.
Parsons, Tom
This report summarizes the Humboldt State University (California) Center for Community Development's activities for fiscal year 1985-86. A chronological compilation of 33 selected projects that have yielded durable or permanent functional and organizational consequences is provided, giving the year of initiation (between 1967 and 1985), the name of the project, and the resulting contributions to the community in question. Perhaps the center's best known project is the American Indian Languages and Literature Program which first adapted an internationally acknowledged, easy-to-learn, uniphonetic alphabet to write Indian languages precisely, and then schooled fluent local speakers in its use and dissemination. A state budget is included totaling $263,791 with an additional $102,533 in government funds. Following this is a list of Citizen's Action Projects with names of principal operatives, credit and non-credit courses and other educational meetings, 33 titles published by the Center, a list of grant seeking efforts, copies of articles, letters of commendation and certificates honoring the center and its activities, and a list of radio and television interviews. Appended is a section on the activities of the center's director during the reporting period, and an annotated bibliography of publications of the Bilingual Emphasis Program on Indian Language and Culture (31 titles).
