Abstract: Human Service organizations are influenced in significant ways by elements in their environment. The way Human Service organizations structure themselves, the technology they utilize and the environment in which they operate are the variables considered in this research model. A simulation model is constructed for the purpose of assisting decision makers in analyzing potential alternatives for decision making. The Human Service organization utilized for the purposes of this study was the Minnesota 4-H Youth Development program for the University of Minnesota Agricultural Extension Service. The model was constructed based on the theory of organizations which includes their structure, technology, and environment and the relationships between the same. A casual map of the relationships was developed. Indicators of structure, technology, and environment were identified and data for each indicator collected from the periods 1925-1980.
