WHAT IS COMMUNITY ASSESSMENT?


Community needs assessment is the process
wherein problems, issues and concerns of the
community (barangay) are identified through the
use of several tools for assessment.

WHY IS THE NEEDS ASSESSMENT IMPORTANT?


1. It gives a clear picture to the group of the
situation/place where their civic welfare service
will be conducted.
2. The group involved in civic welfare service must
not assume what the barangay needs.
3. The people of the barangay are the only ones
who know what they need.
4. If projects done for the barangay are based on
needs assessment, then there is a better chance
for the CWTS project to succeed.

PROBLEM TREE
may be classified as:
(1) Causes – which can also be assumed as “roots”
(2) Effects – which can also be assumed as “fruits”

- Problems or conflict, in its broad sense, should


not hinder someone from appreciating life.
- Instead, problems should be considered as
stepping stones in the process of learning and
evolving.
