Community living room programs, initially developed as part of the settlement house movement, strive to maintain a safe and welcoming atmosphere for clients with basic needs who can then be linked to concrete services. These rare programs do not generally include formal intake and termination criteria and are thus difficult to assess by quantitative means. In this project, the authors used the Community Oriented Programs Environment Scale (COPES) to perform a social climate assessment of a living room program at an urban homeless shelter. The agency board and staff were concerned that expanding numbers of clientele might deter potential and current members from participation and thus defeat the program's major purpose. This paper reports the social climate perceptions of staff and members and recommends agency program adjustments. This type of evaluation has implications for macro practice in determining whether nontraditional programs can be shown to meet certain human needs that complement those addressed by the broader social service system
