"A Working Plan for Colored Antituberculosis Leagues" by C. P. Wertenbaker is a public health guide written in the early 20th century, specifically around 1909. This book serves as a detailed manual for establishing and maintaining antituberculosis leagues within African American communities, focusing particularly on church organizations. The principal topic revolves around the organization and operational strategies necessary for combating tuberculosis, a disease that disproportionately affected colored populations at the time. In this guide, Wertenbaker outlines a systematic approach to forming state-level and church branch leagues aimed at educating members about tuberculosis and providing support to those affected. The book emphasizes the importance of community engagement and regular reporting to ensure that league activities effectively address the needs of members and promote better health practices. Key recommendations include the establishment of committees focused on finance, information, sick assistance, and sanitation, as well as the distribution of educational materials and resources to help prevent the spread of tuberculosis. Wertenbaker's work highlights the need for coordinated efforts within communities to combat the disease and improve overall living conditions. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
