SUMMARY OF THE REPORT

ON

THE CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM

The value of the classification system is in its function as a diagnostic tool. When social problems are classified within the system's comprehensive framework, it is easier to view them in their relationships to one another and to work toward solutions that support each other.

A "problem" in the classification system is a state of malfunction
as contrasted to a desired, ideal, "no problem" state. Programs are
classified according to the kinds of problems to which they are related.
The use of the system rests on these assumptions:

2.

1. That although problems may be separated in classification,
they cannot be considered discretely in problem solving.
That our government has the largest scope of responsibility
for problem solving of any social institution, a scope
commensurate with the power vested in it by the people. It
must, then, concern itself, not with just a specific aspect
of a social problem, but with the widest extension of that
problem.

The system does not take into account any particulars--available expertise, possible implementation, extent of authority--of social problems. It does not presuppose which institutions might undertake solutions.

At no time is a society static. Unsolved problems create other problems, and sometimes solving one problem creates others. The context for each problem is continually changing. Those who work to solve social problems, must, then, consider both the present and the potential victims of social malfunction. The classification system is helpful in dealing with the complexity of planning solutions to social problems.

Social problems--and programs--may be classified according to the following groupings:

I. Problems affecting the individual (rural, urban, suburban)

D.

E.

F.

Inadequate assets and savings

Inability to defend oneself (legally, financially, etc.)
Poor health--all age levels

II.
