"Southern Moore County Case Study," April, 2005.Since this study was conducted, grass-roots groups in southern Moore
County - representing excluded minority communities - have obtained
municipal services and increased awareness of their plight. The
Jackson Hamlet neighborhood's advocacy led the town of Pinehurst to

additional municipal services and vote in local elections. Several
other neighborhoods have had similar successes, while a few are still
struggling.
