In the groundbreaking text, Bridging the Gap Between Asset/Capacity Building and Needs Assessment, James W. Altschuld examines the synthesis of two antithetical ideas—needs assessment and asset/capacity building. At the heart of this approach is a focus on assessing the strengths and assets that communities have and demonstrating how to make those assets stronger. The author explains the foundation of needs assessment and asset/capacity building, discusses their similarities and differences, and offers a new hybrid framework that includes eight steps for how they can be done jointly for better results. The author then applies a checklist for judging the quality of this approach to six cases that represent real-world applications of hybrid principles. The last chapter demonstrates how such efforts might be studied in the future, emphasizing ways findings and results from hybrid ventures can be used effectively. A wide range of examples, tables, and figures appear throughout, with insightful discussion questions at the end of each chapter to facilitate meaningful discourse.

The goal of Bridging the Gap is to provide a book that takes a competing approach to Needs Assessment and shows the alternative side--the capacity building and assets of communities and individuals. At the heart of this approach is assessing the strengths and assets that communities have and how to take those assets and make them even stronger. The book bridges the two concepts of Asset/Capacity Building and Needs Assessment and shows an applied emphasis to the synthesis.

Recenzijos

"There is great tension between the two camps and if this book can bring the two together to a certain extent it will be a valuable tool." -- Paul Komarek "Building capacity is an important concept to develop in areas like Emergency/Disaster Planning and Community Relations. In addition to its scholarly value, it could be useful for practitioners too." -- Kenneth Goldberg "The material reflects a strengths-based model that is among the best-practices currently available." -- Judith Birgen "Combining two approaches that are complementary in many waysnovel idea, have not seen this proposed before." -- Brian P. Leung, PhD "Highlights the value of both Needs Assessment (NA) and Assets Based Community Development (ABCD), moving beyond "either/or" thinking about the knowledge and skills that are needed to bring about community change." -- Barbara Soniat "It provides a very good step-by-step approach to identifying community challenges and assets/capacities and how to develop plans to address them. Realistic and practical." -- Kenneth Goldberg "The virtue of this text is that it is specific, sequenced, and offers a number of examples useful to students who find the content somewhat novel.  For social work, students can bring this kind of text into the practicum environment and employ it as a road map for working with community members in completing projects.  So, the text lends itself to project-based, problem-focused, and/or action learning. This is an asset. " -- David P. Moxley "I have seen nothing as thorough as this work. No one else synthesizes the material the way the author has done. I enjoyed the continuum from cooperation to collaboration and found the needs and assets discussions to be useful." -- Judith Birgen
