As of May 15, 2002, a total of 13 presumptive cases of saxitoxin poisoning were reported in Florida residents who ate pufferfish caught in waters near Titusville, Florida. Five cases were reported in April, and eight cases were identified through increased surveillance by Florida poison control centers, hospital emergency departments (EDs), and county health departments. This report updates the investigation of these cases.
This article examines the capacity of public neighborhood centers to be instruments of change in human services. The authors focus specifically on the centers' ability to perform critical leadership functions in social planning and locality development. Data presented in the article were gathered through an independent study of 45 public neighborhood centers in Central Florida. Study findings indicate that public neighborhood centers tend to reflect the characteristics of static rather than dynamic organizations. Major adjustments in their goals, funding, technology, decision making, and performance will be needed before public officials can count on them to lead innovations in social planning and locality development.
