The responsiveness of black Fulton county commissioners to black concerns in Fulton county, 1989
No full textBlacks have held three of the seven positions on the Fulton County Board of Commissioners since 1979. In 1986, that number was increased to five. The purpose of this study is to determine whether or not black residents of Fulton County feel that the black commissioners are more responsive to their needs than the white commis-sioners who were a majority before 1986. The significance of this study is that it will add to the existing literature on the responsiveness of black elected officials in the U.S. as a whole and the south in particular. The study will add to the ongoing debate about the role of black elected officials in the deliverability of services to their black constituents. The five black County Commissioners were inter-viewed to see how responsive they feel they have been to black citizens. A total of 100 black residents of the southern part of the county were surveyed to determine their perceptions of service delivery since blacks gained a majority on the Fulton County Board of Commissioners. The major finding of this study was that 94 percent of the respondents surveyed felt that the black commissioners are more responsive to their needs. The main sources of information for this study were obtained from interviews, books, journals, newspapers and magazines

A study of the National Youth Administration work projects for Negroes in Fulton County, Georgia, 1940
No full textIn the fall of 1938, Mr. William Shell, state director of the Negro division of the National Youth Administration in Georgia, in the role of guest speaker, delivered an address to a class in Public Welfare Administration at the Atlanta University School of Social Work. He spoke on the National Youth Administration in Georgia for Negroes. Stimulated by a desire to learn to what extent the National Youth Administration Program was fulfilling its main objectives in the NYA Work Projects set up for Negroes in Atlanta, the author chose as a subject for a thesis, "The National Youth Administration Work Projects for Negroes in Fulton County, Georgia." Work Projects were those projects operated by NYA through which youths between the ages of eighteen and twenty-four who were out-of-school were compensated for activities in which they were engaged. This study would include all the Negro NYA Work Projects in Atlanta and Fulton County. To make such a study it was necessary to visit and to observe the projects while they were in operation and through these means be able to ascertain whether or not they were fulfilling their objectives
Consent decrees in corrections: a case study of the Fulton County jail, 1987
No full textThis degree paper is based on a research paper entitled "Consent Decrees in Corrections" delivered at a conference on "Correctional Health Care" in Orlando, Florida, March 5-8, 1986. The conference was sponsored by the American Correctional Health Services Association. This degree paper and the research paper on which it is based have not been published and I retain full proprietory and copyright to both papers. The intent of this paper is to discuss the provision of constitutionally acceptable services and care in the field of corrections at the Fulton County Jail which led to the filing of a consent decree. Of particular importance are the variables used by the parties who filed the federal suit alledging that facility conditions, inmate overcrowding, health related services, security availability, inmate personal services, and grievance measures did not meet the standards for human habitation in a correctional facility. The major findings of this degree paper are as follows: 1. Overcrowding experienced by the jail prior to the Consent Decree remains one of the major problems still hindering the progress of the Fulton County Jail. 2. Health Related Services have improved dramatically since Fulton County moved to incorporate contract medical services. 3. Inmate personal services have been substantially upgraded. 4. Grievance measures have been instituted to appropriately respond to inmate needs and desires. 5. Security has been improved by the addition of staff. 6. Facility conditions have improved by painting cells and other areas, making repairs to electrical, plumbing and sanitation systems throughout the building. Information concerning Consent Decrees was collected from interviews with Georgia Department of Corrections Officials, publications of the American Correctional Association entitled Corrections Today and Corrections Magazine, the Georgia Code of Law and scholarly works on the subject of corrections. As a direct participant in the case, this writer had personal exposure to many of the occurrences and situations cited
