Design the Partnership

• Participation includes campus staff, students, faculty and the director or volunteer coordinator.
• The partnership encompasses ad hoc projects involving individual CBO’s and various campus constituencies.
• Common values are present in the individual mission statement.

Building on Collaboration

• Coordination between a combination of partnering organization’s activities among partners. Partners identify common community issues and problems.
• The partnership organization takes the form of a task force or joint CBO-campus committee with regular meetings and shared communication among multiple partners.
• Partnership members articulate common missions and values to identify the values of the partnership.

Sustaining the Partnership

• Partnership activities among multiple organizations are coordinated in order to mobilize the relative strengths of each partner to meet common goals and objectives.
• The partnership itself has a permanent organization with a full-time director and staff.
• The partnership as an institution has a clearly defined mission statement.
