Danville Region Social Capital Survey 2009
From the Executive Summary: The
2009 Danville Region Social Capital Survey was conducted by the Center
for Survey Research (CSR) at the University of Virginia, at the request
of the Danville Regional Foundation. This telephone survey of 1,026 randomly
selected individuals living in the City of Danville, Pittsylvania County
and Caswell County, NC was conducted in April 2009. . . . Previous research
has shown that a community with abundant social capital is better able
to meet the economic needs of residents, defend the area’s political
interests, fend off external threats, and protect the quality of life
of its residents. Specialists in community development have long recognized
that if social capital can be strengthened in a community, then the capacity
of that community to provide for its residents is enhanced. For all these
reasons, it is important to the long-range plans of the Danville Regional
Foundation, and the communities it serves, to better understand the state
of social capital in the Danville region.
