Looking for Exemplars of
Public-Nonprofit Collaboration

NHSA is working closely with its public sector counterpart-APHSA (American Public Human Services Association)-to identify and promote great, proven instances of collaboration between public sector and nonprofit sector human service organizations.  Some of the examples will be presented in Policy &  Practice, the journal produced by APHSA.

 

Examples of public-nonprofit partnerships can be at the local, state, or national levels.  The kinds of examples sought are those that are actually working and showing promising results not ideas or plans.  Those with lessons for other geographic or cross-sector partnerships would be most appropriate.

 

View the attached flyer for additional information and submit your collaboration to Irz Katz.

Sincerely,
