Felt Needs and Anticipatory Needs: Reformulation of a Basic Community Development Principle.
Wade, Jerry L.
Journal of the Community Development Society, v20 n1 p116-23 1989
The use of felt needs in community development practice involves the process of identifying needs, ranking their importance, and building programs based on the ranking. Felt needs should be replaced by the concept "anticipatory needs," which identifies what needs to be done in order to move toward a specified future. (Author/JOW)
