摘要

本研究通过强调非营利社区扫盲组织能够以超越其既定使命的方式造福个人和社区的方式,对现有文献做出了贡献。我们采用了定性研究设计,通过深入的个人访谈和对项目用户(n = 72)、工作人员(n = 11)和项目负责人(n = 8)的焦点小组收集数据。调查结果显示,除了支持传统定义的识字概念外,项目还为参与者提供了培养桥梁和联系社会资本的机会。通过在项目中创造的条件和采用的方案措施,连接社会资本往往加强了服务用户之间以及在许多情况下,工作人员和志愿者之间更深层次的联系。管理人员和工作人员描述了创造有利于社会资本发展的项目文化的努力。该研究阐明了非营利社区实体如何通过促进社会和组织联系、促进社区凝聚力和社会信任,以及在边缘化社区中培养通常不被承认的人才、优势和资产,来赋予个人服务用户及其社区超越其既定使命的权力。

Bridging and Bonding: A Case for Prioritizing Social and Organizational Connectedness in Non-Profit Literacy Programming.

The present study contributes to the existing literature by highlighting the ways in which non-profit community literacy organizations can benefit individuals and communities in ways that transcend their stated missions. We employed a qualitative research design whereby data were collected via in-depth individual interviews and focus groups with program users (n = 72), staff (n = 11), and program leads (n = 8). Findings revealed that, in addition to supporting traditionally defined notions of literacy, programs presented participants with opportunities to cultivate bridging and bonding social capital. By way of the conditions created and programmatic measures employed within programs, bridging social capital often strengthened into deeper bonding ties between and amongst service users and, in many cases, staff and volunteers. Administrators and staff described efforts to create program cultures conducive to the development of social capital. The research illuminates how non-profit community entities can empower individual service users and their communities beyond their stated missions by fostering social and organizational connectedness, promoting communal cohesion and social trust, and cultivating typically unacknowledged talents, strengths and assets within marginalized communities.
