Community resources are the various assets and support systems that are available within a community to help individuals and families meet their needs and improve their quality of life. These resources can include government services, non-profit organizations, schools, hospitals, businesses, churches, and other community-based institutions. Research in this area seeks to understand the availability, accessibility, and effectiveness of these resources in addressing social, economic, and health disparities within a community. This research may also explore ways to strengthen and expand community resources to better support community members in need.
