Abstract
A oft asked question by Extension professionals is: Should we become involved in politics to implement certain programs? Jeffrey, in a case study, explains how he and others in Rhode Island became involved in their state's political system to implement a resource-use program. By involvemtn in the political arena, a small group of individuals who shared the same values were able to make major changes in the governmental structure of their state. Jeffrey explains in the article how the social-action model can function in politics.
