This paper provides an opportunity to consider the concept of community practice from the vantage point of community psychology. The author argues that community psychology has significant potential to change organizations, communities, and other settings to benefit setting occupants. However, it is the author's contention that the full realization of this potential is contingent upon an organized effort to engage in formal community practice. The author defines community practice in terms of four skill sets related to mobilization, planning, implementation, and evaluation. The author also describes settings that might support community practice and discusses implications for training and the field of community psychology in general. Finally, the author illustrates several community practice skills and roles in the context of a local community-based initiative in Ohio called Partnerships for Success.
本文提供了一个从社区心理学的视角来思考社区实践概念的契机。作者认为，社区心理学在改变组织、社区及其他环境以造福其中的居住者方面具有巨大潜力。然而，作者的观点是，要充分实现这一潜力，取决于开展正式社区实践的有组织努力。作者从与动员、规划、实施和评估相关的四种技能组合的角度对社区实践进行了定义。作者还描述了可能支持社区实践的环境，并探讨了对培训以及整个社区心理学领域的影响。最后，作者在俄亥俄州一项名为“成功伙伴关系”的基于当地社区的倡议背景下，阐述了几种社区实践技能和角色。
