Qualitative, in-depth, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 21 families (N = 47 individuals). Qualitative data analysis revealed themes categorized under the domains of general life strengths, marital strengths, and parenting strengths. Findings suggest that for th…
Turning the Tide on Poverty
Qualitative research analysis uncovered themes across the multiple rural, economically distressed communities that participated in the Turning the Tide on Poverty project. Community climate, referred to as the perception of the community by its members, was one theme that emerged. Intertwined with this theme is a discussion regarding race relations. How people felt about their community may have influenced whether or not the Turning the Tide on P…
Turning the Tide on Poverty
The Turning the Tide on Poverty project (Tide) was a civic engagement effort launched in 14 economically distressed southern rural communities in the US. The impetus of Tide was to foster community involvement in identifying and planning “place-based” solutions to poverty. Pre, immediate post, and follow-up data were collected, and qualitative analyses revealed key themes. The purpose of this article was to discuss the perceptions of the leadersh…
Turning the Tide on Poverty
Desiring to enhance understanding of the key elements that promote community-based democratic engagement and spur people to engage in the vitality of their communities, in 2008 the Turning the Tide on Poverty project launched in six southern US states. Inspired by the successes of the Horizons project in the northwestern US, Tide was a collaborative effort led by the Southern Rural Development Center with partners that included the Kettering Foun…
Turning the Tide on Poverty
Cooperative Extension Services (CES) played a critical role in the Turning the Tide on Poverty (Tide) project in the southern US. In an effort to explore how CES professionals perceived their role in the initiative, data were collected from CES leaders and agents. Focus groups were held at the beginning (N = 11) and conclusion (N = 12) of the first year with Extension leadership to discuss their thoughts on CES’ role in civic engagement activitie…
Turning the Tide on Poverty
As practitioners expand their efforts to promote civic engagement and action through the use of dialog, one of the nagging concerns is how to effectively and successfully measure and document the outcomes associated with these local activities. The organic nature of citizen-led initiatives makes this a particularly challenging area in which to guage results. One promising method, Ripple Effect Mapping (REM), is an effective, easy-to-use, and cost…
Turning the Tide on Poverty
Turning the Tide on Poverty (“Tide”) was a community engagement program implemented in rural communities in the southern United States seeking place-based solutions to poverty. Tide was structured to evolve and be sustained by local communities after formal support ended. Tide communities were visited a year or more after the end of the program to assess program sustainability. Key factors revealed through qualitative analysis to be important to …
Turning the Tide on Poverty
Turning the Tide on Poverty is designed in part to expand the number of new voices in community dialogs and to spur those individuals to become leaders in their communities. In this article, we explore the degree to which the success of the Tide project is linked to the emergence or presence of a local champion. We defined a champion as a catalyst or sparkplug and then examined the extant literature and our data to determine the qualities of a ch…
Transitions to Engagement Among Low-Income Cohabiting African American Couples
With passage of the Welfare Reform Law of 1996, various national, state, and local programs were created to encourage marriage, particularly among low-income African American cohabiting couples with children. However, policy makers know little about the deterrents to marriage for members of this group. More specifically, there is a lack of data that address the narrative responses of low-income, cohabiting African Americans regarding their desire…

Qualitative coding and analysis revealed 4 key themes: (1) Challenges in African American Marriages, (2) Overcoming External Challenges to Marriage, (3) Resolving Intramarital Conflict, and (4) Unity and the Importance of Being “Equally Yoked.” Supporting qualitative data are presented in connect…
Commitment to Work Among Welfare-Reliant Women
The purpose of this article is to describe the work of welfare-reliant women and to reveal commitment to work in the experiences of 84 welfare-reliant, rural women interviewed for this study. Understanding the domains where welfare-reliant women exhibit commitment to work may help policy makers, trainers, and employers design and implement interventions that enhance chances of success for these women in the formal, paid workforce. Discussion focu…
Focus Group Discussions
The purpose of this article is to demonstrate the usefulness of focus group discussions (FGDs) in family and consumer sciences research. First, we briefly describe theFGDmethodology in terms of question development, group composition and recruitment, interview protocol and logistics, and data analysis. Then, we show how we applied that methodology in three specific examples from our work with family and consumer sciences research projects. Our ex…

Continued Reliance on One Respondent in Family Decision-Making Studies
A common practice in studies of conjugal and family decision making is the use and generalization of one family member's responses to describe other family member's attitudes, perceptions, or family-interaction patterns. Response inconsistency is regarded by some as a systematic factor of perceptual difference and by others as a nonsystematic measurement error. A content analysis of research articles (N = 80) published in professional journals is…
