The Privatization of Human Services: Policy and Practice Issues Volume I
How Voluntary Agency Networks Fared in the 1980s

This article provides a comparative analysis of the financial status of three major types of voluntary agency networks before and near the end of the Reagan era. Focusing on national voluntary health, child welfare league, and family service agenc…

Reaganomics: Its Impact on the Voluntary Not-for-Profit Sector
In seeking to diminish government's role in financing human services, the Reagan Administration has advocated increased responsibility for the voluntary sector. This analysis of data from a variety of voluntary not-for-profit agencies documents the initial effects of Reaganomics and considers projections for the future of those agencies
Alternative Service Delivery Strategies: Factors in States' Decision Making
This article focuses on the range of choices and factors affecting state level decision making about how human services are to be delivered. In light of the dual thrusts of decentralization and privatization, the viability of public-private partnerships through contracting for services is explored. Among the significant factors affecting decisions about alternative forms of service delivery are: political and fiscal preferences; the strength of o…
Human Services Trends in the Mid-1970s
After many decades of geometric growth and expansion, the human services are stabilizing, even contracting, in the face of adverse economic conditions
Alcohol Levels of Emergency Service Patients Injured in Fights and Assaults
Social Characteristics and Blood Alcohol Level; Measurements of Subgroup Differences

Religious-Ethnic Differences in Alcohol Consumption
Numerous studies have reported differences in the drinking behavior of religious-ethnic subgroups. The present study utilized an objective measure of alcohol level-the Breathalyzer-as well as interviewers' observations and respondents' self-reports. Data were collected on 8,461 patients admitted to a hospital emergency service. Alcohol consumption, as indicated by Breathalyzer readings and other available measures, was significantly related to re…

Program change through mental health planning
Policy Paper: A New Look at Public Planning for Human Services
Divergent planning trends in human service fields are described and analyzed. Highlighted are simultaneous emphases on local high impact and state planning, domain issues in comprehensive planning, and the impact of technology and participation. Each trend is posed as an opportunity for attacking a delimited aspect of human service problems-and as a potential danger if it were given undue emphasis. The authors point to longer run dangers of bypas…
Mental Illness, Alcoholism, and Drug Dependence
In recent years, substantial federal interest has developed in mental illness, alcoholism, and drug dependence. Funds for research, training, preventive, and therapeutic programs are becoming increasingly available. Although epidemiological findings do not suggest any increasing rates of mental illness or alcoholism in this century, it is true that many more mind-altering drugs are available and that experimentation may be more widespread. More s…
