Partners

With a small staff, we have relied heavily on allies, consultants, advisors and champions as we strive to provide value to and extend the capacity of frontline organizations without competing with them for scarce resources.

Academic Partners

Our Academic Advisory Committee has served as a critical link in our extended network, rendering invaluable service in the development of the Civic Leadership Institute curriculum and in identifying research and academic resources of value to our partners in the field.
