Effective partnerships are essential for non-profit organizations and governmental agencies seeking to enhance their reach, optimize resources, and deliver high-quality services. Our Partnership Development & Management service guides clients through the full lifecycle of partnership creation and sustainment, making it easier for them to focus on the outcomes their partnerships can create. 

We start by working with clients to assess the gaps between the services they offer, the resources needed by their communities, and how partnerships can bridge that gap. Building on this analysis, we identify potential partners whose goals and services align with those of our clients, and support initial outreach efforts, facilitating early conversations among potential partners. Once partnerships are established, we set partnerships up for long-term success by developing clear, actionable partnership agreements, establishing clear governance structures, facilitating key stakeholder meetings, and creating metrics and tools that will help organizations to monitor their progress. 

Our work has supported a variety of successful collaborations, ranging from creating the partnership framework between an NYC agency and local service providers to supporting neighborhood-based coalitions to move the needle on economic and workforce development issues key to their communities. Each project reflects our commitment to the power of partnerships and to creating sustainable networks that address pressing community needs.
