Abstract
The Society for the Study of Social Problems was formed to analyze social problems, but especially to contribute to their solutions. After some recent years of drifting, a critical mass of the members has begun to construct a more progressive SSSP. One focus is how to change the annual meetings so as not to become a “junior ASA.” SSSP needs to break with the format that features isolated, professional discourse and begin to construct encounters with social practitioners and community activists. Attention to more democratic decision-making within the society and establishing a commission on grass roots organizations are other means to help re-establish the progressive character of SSSP.
