Background
In the late 1960s and early 1970s, the federal government, in its efforts to seek better and more permanent solutions to local problems confronting
both urban and rural areas, decentralized and decategorized its human services' programs by placing such programs' administration and implementation
responsibilities on state and local governmental entities.
