樂在關係裡，活在守護中—屏東德協社區的共生故事

Abstract

研究者屢屢回鄉與父母談及投入社區生活的快樂點滴，啟發研究者欲為父母居住的社區留下文字紀錄與其推動過程。本研究藉由文件分析法與質性訪談，以瞭解社區發展協會的緣起、現況與成功推動政策的關鍵，期能作為其他社區發展協會推動在地福利社區之參考，並讓臺灣各地有志在社區發展協會服務或是推廣社區發展的人士，帶領社區發展協會迎向更美好的未來。經研究發現，「德協社區發展協會」之前身，為創立於1985年的德成及德成社區理事會，後於1992年配合政府政策，改立為現今發展協會。該會與其他社區相異之處，在於長時間不計較的理事長領導以及不計較的幹部群、志工群及會員們共同付出時間、金錢、物資，亦刻意不嚴謹遵守政府的組織規程裡的繁文縟節，讓參與付出者，不會因為政府繁雜的規章熄滅他們的熱情。本研究建議政府推動長照2.0政策應運用換位思考與貼近居民的在地化思維，其能使政策內容軟化，並能提高居民接受度，進而提升政策推動的效率與效能。The researcher frequently returned to her hometown to talk to her parents about the joy of being involved in community life. This inspired the researcher to keep written records of the community in which her parents lived and the promotion process. Through document analysis and qualitative interview methods, an insight was gained into the origin and current situation of the community development association, as well as the key to the successful policy promotion. The findings should serve as a reference for other community development associations when promoting local welfare communities. Additionally, individuals aspiring to serve at the community development association or promote community development will lead the community development association towards a better future. Research findings show that the Te Hsieh and Te Cheng Community Councils founded in 1985 are the predecessors of the “Te Hsieh Community Development Association”. The community council was later changed to the current development association in conjunction with the government policy in 1992.The difference between the association and other communities lies in the chairman’s giving no thought to personal gain or loss throughout her long-term leadership, as well as the time, money, and materials put in by the cadres, volunteers, and members without giving any consideration to their personal gain or loss. The unnecessary and overelaborate formalities of the government’s organizational rule are deliberately not strictly observed. This is to ensure the devoted participants’ passion will not be extinguished by the government’s complicated regulations. This study suggests that the government should put itself in others’ shoes to understand the residents’ localized mindset when promoting the long-term care 2.0 policy. This will in turn soften the policy content and increase the residents’ degree of acceptance, thereby enhancing policy promotion efficiency and effectiveness.
