Popis: We discuss a series of multidisciplinary research projects in which various information/decision technologies are being used by university researchers and teams of university students, in cooperation with government organizations and neighborhood associations, to assist residents of low income areas to develop reliable methods for identifying specific neighborhood problems, and to use those methods to mobilize appropriate governmental and private-sector agencies to assist in remediation. The accomplishments of the research are examined, and the goals and expected benefits to the community, the university, the college, the department, and the students, of future stages of this integrative series of projects are discussed.
