Community Change in Action: A Roadmap for Students: Community Development Research and Practice Series

Autor Sarah L. Young, Carly L. Redding
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 28 mai 2025
Community Change in Action guides students through the process of turning their personal passion into goal-driven action for community development. Using an evidence-based curriculum, the book breaks down exactly how to initiate and drive social change in a way that speaks to the unique characteristics of Generation Z (Gen Z).
Each chapter provides step-by-step actions, analyzes real-life examples, and supplies the necessary tools for success. The authors' multiple decades of experience leading students in community development, both in the United States and abroad, spawn a rich and engaging source for these examples. Each step is highlighted through Gen Z's narrated examples of using the guide and the associated toolkits to implement major social change initiatives, from Native American reservations to the slums of India and beyond.
This book takes best practice approaches to youth leadership, community development, and social change beyond the classroom, inspiring and illustrating how Gen Z students can take their passion and turn it into social action.

Recenzii

"We are at a global inflection point educationally, socially, and politically. What Drs. Young and Redding do in this ever so timely and necessary book is remind us of three things: first, the importance of caring about what is happening locally and globally; second, they provide real lived examples of what can be done; and third, they stress the centrality of working with and within communities. Read it, share it, and act on its core message and values.
John Diamond, Ph.D., Emeritus Professor of Public Policy and Professional Practice, Edge Hill University UK
"Dr. Redding and Young’s community development textbook provides a much-needed addition to the field and the classroom. With real-world examples and doable steps, this book will energize students as they see how to make a difference with their careers and in their communities. This is the kind of textbook that students keep well beyond the semester’s end. They will learn how to clarify a unique vision, build a powerful network, map out a career, and put into action significant community development and social change."
Mary A. Carney, Ph.D., Senior Director of Faculty and Leadership Development, Office of Faculty Affairs, University of Georgia
"This book takes the unique approach of targeting socially minded young adults and provides a comprehensive approach to utilize their passion for social change to implement large-scale transformations within communities. The strength of the book is really in the operationalizing section, which provides the reader with the crucial steps of making an action plan, ways to consider resources, and even how to leverage social media to assist in creating change."
Roger Runquist, Ph.D., Director of Center for Teaching, Learning and Leadership, University of North Georgia
