The general objective of the research described in these pages has been to locate a community in which people were active in relation to health needs and to observe sys tematically and record the processes by which decisions were reached, plans were formulated on the basis of these deci sions, and action programs were initiated and carried meet health problems of a community. ut to This study represents an empirical and interdisciplinary piece of research of processes of stratification and social ac tion. It was made possible by a grant from the Health Infor mation Foundation of New York to the University of North Carolina's Institute for Research in Social Science. The officials of the Foundation and the University group felt that research into the processes of community self-study, through giving clues about community organization which can be utilized in meeting local health problems, might be of considerable significance to many laymen, social scientists, students, community organizers, and community health educators.
