Review Of Applied Urban Research 1980, Vol. 08, No. 01, Center For Public Affairs Research (Cpar)

Publications

This issue of Review of Applied Urban Research features "A Needs Assessment of Older Hispanics," David R. Martino.

The successful delivery of human services requires rational program planning. Rational program planning, in turn, requires evaluation of 1) the needs of targeted client groups, 2) the availability of established services to the potential clients, and 3) the utilization of available services by the client population(s). The success of human service delivery systems, therefore, must incorporate the assessment of public programs in terms of the correspondence between client needs and service provision and usage.

Population Regulation In Wolves, Jane M. Packard, L. David Mech

United States Geological Survey, Northern Prairie Wildlife Research Center: Publications

The possibility of social regulation of wolf populations has been discussed in the literature for several years. Some of the first ecological studies of wolves indicated that their populations did not increase as rapidly as was theoretically possible, and that they reached a saturation point apparently not set by food. Subsequent captive studies demonstrated the existence of social mechanisms possibly capable of regulating population growth. However, the importance of these factors in wild populations has not been established. This paper has four objectives: (1) to evaluate the existing concept of "intrinsic limitation," (2) to propose that wolf population dynamics may …

The State Of Black Omaha 1980, Center For Public Affairs Research (Cpar)

Publications

In early 1978, the Urban League of Nebraska published a report designed to measure the status of Blacks in housing, employment, education, health care and political participation. At that time, Blacks in Omaha were found to be deficient in all the above areas in relation to the general community. Today, in early 1980, the basic facts of that report have not significantly changed. Blacks are still almost exclusively concentrated east of 48th Street with most of them having a median income just under 1 half that of the Omaha average of $16,000. Official figures indicate that while Black unemployment has …

Alcoholism Research Project Of Mexican Americans In Scottsbluff, Nebraska, Jesse Cervantes, David R. Dimartino

Publications

The principle focus of this report is to assess the availability and utilization of established alcoholism services for Mexican Americans in the Scottsbluff area. Though important, the concern here is not with the absolute supply of services (for example, the number of quarter way and halfway houses in Scottsbluff County), nor is it with spatial distribution of services (for example, the location of the detoxification center in Scottsbluff County) . Rather, this analysis focuses on the utilization of existing services and the extent of the need for services by Mexican Americans in the Scottsbluff area.
