    • To propose a community-oriented model for self-care systems tailored to inner-city populations.
    • To outline the essential components for effective community self-care.

    Main Methods:

    • Conceptual framework development for community self-care.
    • Identification of key system requirements: information base, dissemination, support, and evaluation.

    Main Results:
