To submit a paper contact the editor, Randy Stoecker, at randy@comm-org.utoledo.edu.

Authors retain complete control over their work, and COMM-ORG supports authors revising their Papers for submission to journals, trade publications, or anywhere.

-What works and what doesn’t in community organizing, planning, and development.
