In rural areas, there are emerging reformation processes in regional autonomous organizations. However, the question of facilitation and management of these processes remains unsettled. In this study we applied the model of “Ba” to analyze the processes in 10 elementary school divisions in Sasayama city. Results showed the gradations of achievements in different divisions, from successfully functioning cases which have generated “Ba”, to those with difficulties after the first support from the public administration. Two elaborated cases clarified the basic conditions and the elements in different stages of the model to facilitate and manage the reformation processes.
