National Mandates and Local Nonprofits: Shaping a Local Delivery System of HIV/AIDS Services
This paper shows how federal resources and mandates concerning the HIV epidemic combined with the political economy and political culture of Dallas, Texas to create a distinctive local HIV/AIDS service system. The infusion of federal funds allowed nonprofit organizations to expand their services, especially in the areas of economic assistance and social services. In addition, funding to minority agencies and services to minority clients were expanded. While the fund administration structure imposed on the nonprofit providers necessitated greater administrative efforts on their part and enhanced the power of local government, it also greatly improved coordination.
