Historical Note

The Community Action Training Center (CATC) at Syracuse University was a program that trained students to assist and organize local impoverished and underserved communities. It was founded and developed through the cooperative effort of the School of Social Work, Youth Development Center, and University College (now the College of Professional Studies). Its aim was to assist and organize the local poor communities to address poverty.

In 1964, Syracuse University received a grant from the newly-established government agency Office of Economic Opportunity (OEO) to fund an anti-poverty program that would train and educate students on how to organize low-income communities. Students in the program attended lectures, seminars, and staff meetings regarding social action against poverty and engaged in field work where they became familiar with low-income neighborhoods through orientation, observation, and direct involvement. Under the direction of CATC director Warren C. Haggstrom, students went into poor, primarily Black, communities and interviewed community members about their concerns and issues. Residents expressed concerns with a range of issues, including fair access to education (including de facto segregated schools, such as Croton Elementary, a school in the city district that was over 90 percent Black), housing, and employment. When community members complained about the inadequate housing conditions, students encouraged the residents to lodge complaints against the Syracuse Housing Authority. After several residents did so, the local government became concerned that the CATC was antagonizing residents against the city and thus challenging the local power structure.

The city government, led by mayor William Walsh, pressured the University to disband the CATC. At the end of 1965, the organization lost its community involvement funding from the OEO, although records showed that they continued to have a presence in neighborhoods through the summer of 1966. After losing funding, the CATC solely focused on research and classroom learning. After continued political pressure, Syracuse University Chancellor William Tolley denounced the CATC, saying that although petitioning for better living conditions was a noble pursuit, the University should be focused on academics rather than social change. Syracuse University ended the program in 1966.

Scope and Content Note

The Community Action Training Center (CATC) Records includes academic material, administrative files, correspondence-subject files, neighborhood files, publications, and research files.

Academic material includes course outlines, syllabi, lecture audio recordings and transcripts, and seminar documentation. The records relate to combating poverty through social action and disrupting local political power structures. Lecturers included American community and political activist Saul Alinsky, community organizer Tom Gaudette, and civil rights activist Norman Hill.

Administrative files contains financial material, meeting minutes, memorandums, training manuals, and reports. The series also includes chronological files, which are materials including correspondence, memorandums and reports that CATC staff retained and filed in chronological order. The original order of these files has been retained.

Correspondence-subject files consists of both internal and external correspondence. Materials include audiotapes, clippings, correspondence, financial material, and reports. Most correspondence is with local anti-poverty agencies, including Crusade for Opportunity, Organization of Organizations, People's War Council on Poverty, and Syracuse Community Development Association. Also included are clippings documenting CATC in local and national print media.

Neighborhood files contains fliers, interview recordings and transcripts, meeting minutes, newsletters, and staff reports regarding different neighborhoods within Syracuse. CATC staff worked with residents in neighborhoods that they identified as low-income, and the staff reports provide insight into how poverty negatively affected residents’ lives and communities. Concerns include lack of adequate housing, education, job opportunities, and security. The materials provide a snapshot of underserved neighborhoods and communities not typically documented and thus provide a rich resource of insight. Syracuse neighborhoods and public housing communities represented, as named by CATC, include: Central Village Organization, East Side Action Organization, James Geddes Organization, Joint Action, Near East Side, Northwest Side Progress Organization, Our Community Organization, Pioneer Homes, Rose Avenue, Salt City Improvement Organization, Tallman, West End Neighborhood Organization, and West Side.

Publications includes CATC-issued brochures, newsletters, and a welfare services handbook.

Research files contains reports, papers, and a library of material related to community action, poverty, and racism. CATC operated a research department, and the materials in this series were either generated or collected by that department.

This collection contains outdated language that some users might find objectionable. Original folder titles have been retained and may contain outdated language. The collection is preserved and presented for its historic and research value.
