A clinical research on challenging cases at volunteer coordination

三年来，我们临床研究了社区服务和其他社区志愿活动中出现的针对他们生活环境的挑战性案例。特别通过对挑战案例结构的分析，考察了社区服务“领域”的实际情况。然后，研究了社区发展的基本条件，其中涉及到互助系统和人际关系的多样性。今年是三年研究计划的最后一年，我们对收集到的所有案例进行了总结，建立了数据库，并对这些案例进行了理论概括。我们的工作可以分为以下4个阶段：具有挑战性的案例研究我们研究了从京都和滋贺县的志愿者中心收集的160多个案例。在此基础上，我们发现了影响社区服务扩展的转折点和节点，从而构建了志愿者活动发展过程模型。(Chapter1, 2、3、4、12)2。对高校志愿服务中心的需求功能及其教育作用进行了研究。此外，我们还为大学生开发了一些具有学术成分的志愿者项目。(11) Chapter10 3。考察志愿者活动的资源我们研究了社区中志愿者活动的资源是如何组织和维护的。还审查了一些志愿人员推广计划（社区服务项目）。(第7章,8,9)4。残疾儿童支持活动的调查在许多具有挑战性的案例中，志愿者中心报告了残疾儿童在放学后缺乏支持系统的情况。我们于2006年10月就残疾儿童日间服务中心进行实况调查研究。(6) Chapter5

For three years, we have clinically examined the challenging cases in community service and other volunteer activities in the community which emerge in response to their living environment. Especially, the realities in the 'field' of community service were investigated through analyzing the structure of the challenging cases. Then, fundamental conditions of community development which involves the system of mutual aid and diversity in human relationships were studied.In this year, the last year of the 3-year research plan, we summarized all the cases collected, made a data base and theoretically generalized from these cases. Our works can be divided into 4 phases as below;1. Case study of the challenging casesWe examined more than 160 cases that we collected from volunteer centers in Kyoto and Shiga Prefectures. There, we found out the turning points and junctions that affect expansion of community service, which led to constructing the model of developmental process of volunteer activities. (Chapter1,2,3,4,12)2. Development of the volunteer programs for higher educationWe investigated the demanded functions of volunteer center and its educational role at university. Moreover, we actually developed some volunteer programs with academic components for university students.( Chapter10,11)3. Examination of resources for the volunteer activitiesWe studied how resources for the volunteer activities were organized and maintained in the community. Some schemes of volunteer promotions (community service projects) were also examined. ( Chapter7,8,9)4. Investigation of supporting activities for the children with disabilitiesLack of support system for the children with disabilities in after school hours has been reported in many challenging cases by volunteer centers. We undertook a fact-finding research on Day-service centers for the children with disabilities in October 2006. ( Chapter5,6)
