In recent years, the central and local governments try their best to explore the mode of governments purchasing social work service in community, especially from social organizations. That’s widely regarded as both an important way to promote the transformation of government functions and the building of service-oriented governments, and a primary method of innovating public service modes. Community, is not only the most grassroots organizations, but also the main platform for various social organizations to implement social services. Governments purchasing social work service in community is conducive to improving people’s living quality and social participation, benefiting the equalization of basic public services, and at the same time developing Chinese social organizations. Accordingly, it should be strongly advocated.Government’s purchase of social services exists in many of our cities, but the large-scale purchase of social services, only appear in one of the few large cities currently. Shenzhen and Nanjing are on the list. The purchases of Social Work of Shenzhen government started earlier than Nanjing, the two modes are also different. Shenzhen uses the post purchase mode, and the mode of Nanjing is project purchase. By analyzing the service subject, service object, service content of the two modes, combine with the survey and interviews of people in the community, the writer found the advantage and the problem of the two modes.The advantages of SZ are (1) the high community residents participation (2) the high satisfaction of community residents (3) "competition for job"-the guarantee of the service quality (4) for all residents of the community, benefit object wide (5) the clear division of labor, high efficiency of service (6) provide employment opportunities for social workers. The purchase mode of Nanjing also popularized education philosophy for the community family, provide a new vision for the streets to carry out community work, improve the non-governmental organization’s visibility for them to institutions in society easily. After the comparison.It’s not difficult to find:two types of purchase both exist some problems:the post purchase mode has heavy administrative color, the depth of service also should be improved; the "lowest bidder wins", the short service period, short term effect, such problems are prevalent in the project purchase pattern. With the comprehensive analysis of two models, the writer obtained the common problems of current government purchases of social work, such as unequal contract relationship, late disbursement of funds are all inconvenient for community services.And it’s also lack of early community needs investigation.For the incomplete of the two modes, combined with their own advantages, I make the conclusion:tring to carry out the combination of two modes. That is using project operation in post mode and giving the position subsidies in project mode. Among the combination, something important shoud be concered. That is the social institutions and civil society organizations should maintain their independence, establish a two-way monitoring and evaluation mechanism for the formation of an equal partnership model, and ultimately realise the post mode and the project mode of help for each other, effectively improve the quality of social work services, to further improve the mechanism for the government to buy social work services.
