Program Implications:
The human development program that is to be implemented in the aftermath of the 11 September 2001 terror attack on our country -- is a vehicle for providing an appropriate response by our people and their civilian institutions of the need to put forward new human development initiatives. These human development initiatives are being developed in a manner that allows our people to counter any potential logic for terrorism against our democratic institutions. Although our country has made great strides in the actualization of the democratic constitutional rights of all our citizens, more work is needed. As we are all aware, a great portion of our country's past and present history is tainted by intolerance. Our country's acts of intolerance have included the genocide of Native American Peoples, the enslavement of African and European Ethnic Groups, violence against racial and ethnic groups, gender discrimination, and etc..
The implementation by our country'sinstitutions of initiatives that bring economic and social justice under our democratic constitutional form of government to all our people is the ideal mode of action that shows our country's past to absolutely not be part of our country's present modality. Our proposed WPHS Family Life Improvement College & University - Community Association human development initiative is a vehicle by which justice and inclusion of all the Community'sFamily Members, in the spirit of the American Constitutional Ideal, is being shown to be practiced by our society.
Through the implementation and publication of the WPHS Family Life Improvement College & University - Community Association human development program institutional arrangements are being created by which our society shows that self-determination, justice and inclusion are the standards for the society's present day modality of operation. The WPHS Family Life Improvement College & University - Community Association institutional arrangements being implemented creates a human development support infrastructure that provides compensatory financial, basic, vocational related training and human development support services for our WPHS Community.
