Abstract: participation, I find that one organization serves as venues for skill building and political engagement. Interpretively, these community based providers convey “place-based” cues about effective responses to neighborhood conditions that inform client political efficacy beliefs and political action. An interplay of staff and client discretion determined how these providers shaped client political behavior. Parents choose their level program involvement which results in varied program experiences and exposure to aspects of program design. Parents who are most involved receive material assistance, gain access to decision-making roles and skill building opportunities, and garner entree to opportunities for political action.
