This series consists of a set of service profiles and their priorities created by the United Community Fund of Greater Edmonton. The profiles document social problems and areas of concern while highlighting potential solutions and challenges involved. They define the problem and its significance, list objectives, provide a program, document the volume of services already provided, identify gaps and redundancies in service delivery, effectiveness of service, projection of needs, and identifying patterns of financing for the service. This series is significant as it demonstrates the forward thinking and research conducted by the Community Fund in addition to how the fund prioritized its work and financing. The first file in the series also provides context for the codes used in the service profiles.

This series, the most extensive of the fonds, consists of the following sub-series: Bibliographies/Directories; Reports and Reference Texts; Articles and Clipping files; Conference information; and Periodicals. The periodicals include both local publications, as well as those published across Canada, in the United States, and elsewhere. For some of the serials, such as The Advocate and Times .10, there are many issues, while others may be represented by just a single issue or volume.
The clipping files, likewise, include some topics that are thick with clippings and articles (such as ‘Civil Rights-Equality Rights’, while others may consist of a single item.
