Special Programs

Speech-language pathologists providing services to handicapped children have pointed out that special education in-service programs in their public school environments frequently do not satisfy the need for updating specific diagnostic and therapy skills. It is the purpose of this article to alert speech-language pathologists to PL 94-142 regulations providing for personnel development, and to inform them of ways to seek state funding for projects to meet their specialized in-service needs. Although a brief project summary is included, primarily the article outlines a procedure whereby the project manager (a speech-language pathologist) and the project director (an administrator in charge of special programs in a Utah school district) collaborated successfully to propose a staff development project which was funded.

Il contributo proposto si basa sulla presentazione analitica e di taglio valutativo di alcune azioni progettuali di contrasto alla povertà educativa realizzate negli ultimi anni e che hanno consentito sia di rafforzare il sistema di offerta sia di promuovere comunità capaci di eserci-tare una funzione autenticamente educante. Nello specifico con "Family Hub Mondi per Crescere" (capofila consorzio Co&So, Firenze) viene presa in considerazione la figura del case manager. Il progetto "Icam" (Istituto Caute-la Attenuata Madri Detenute - Comune di Milano, Ministero della Giustizia, cooperativa so-ciale Genera) ha ricreato un contesto di "normalità" per lo sviluppo armonioso dei bambini e delle loro mamme nell'ambiente carcerario. La cura e il coinvolgimento del territorio e del-la comunità come valore per contrastare la povertà educativa sono azioni del progetto "Co-munità Santa Cecilia" (cooperativa Paolo Babini, Forlì). Infine "Passi Piccoli" (capofila cooperativa Koinè, Milano) ha utilizzato come strumento per prevenire la povertà educativa il coinvolgimento e l'inclusione di spazi e soggetti della città. L'analisi scongiunta sui quattro progetti è svolta attraverso interviste e focus group con i project manager locali in modo da approfondire anche il ruolo dei "sistemi esperti" che a livello locale orchestrano reti di servizi e azioni di community building.

The question of project manager competencies and especially in social projects is a key issue for social organizations seeking to progress and achieve success. If the manager has an important role to play with regard to the social organization, he’s however dependent on his behavioral, professional and personal capacities. The purpose of this paper is to show, on the basis of a quantitative study carried out among 120 managers of social projects in cooperatives located in the city of Agadir (Morocco), that the success of projects is conditioned by the leadership skills. Consequently, factors related to behavioral skills such as Solidarity; Involvement; Patience; Creativity; Empathy; Motivation; Trust; Commitment; Self-esteem; Transparency; Self-control; Discipline and other factors related to professional characteristics and personal characteristics of project managers prove a positive and significant relationship with the criterion of success studied.
