Abstract
This paper includes a conceptual model of community development to be used by change agents and educators of adults to identify its processes and outcomes. Process variables are the number of people involved, amount of time, ability to organize, number of issues addressed, amount of local initiative, and how effectively resources are used. Outcome variables are people-related, organizational, and physical on micro and macro levels. The components of the model are the community development specialist, the core group of citizens, their local community and its extended boundaries, special interest groups, and the resources needed. A graphic presentation of the model is included.
