It is a tCiUzen. -Action Program--a spe cial approach developed by the National Council (NCCD) to work towards the development of the most efficient and effective system for the a-dmlnlstratlon of Justice.

The Constitution requires that the House of Representatives shall choose a President from the tlu'ee highest , on the electoral list. In such case each state delega tion in the House has one vote, and the successful candidate must through their organizations must interest themselves in the pro blems of ci-ime and criminal jus tice, seek Infontiation, express their views, use their vote wise ly,...and get involved.” The CAP docs this in the most con.structive way. Basically, the CAP does four things. It exam ines and evaluates the state’s correctional needs; it determines whart program changes ere need ed and makes recommendations for improving services; it inform-s the public of the needs; and — it acts to carry out its recommenda tions. This latter step --"action”— is frequently missing in some programs. It is the essential in gredient of the Citizen Action Program. It is supported by your contributions to the United Fund.
