In Section 3: Partnerships & Collaboration, you learned about the importance of involving the community in your program. Thinking about where you and your staff might already have connections is a great place to start the process for these partnerships.
Directions: Using Tools 15 and 34, you should have already created an asset map and a market analysis, identifying potential resources in your community that may contribute to your program. Take those tools out now as you begin to work with this tool. While those tools helped you identify organizations, this tool is designed to help you think about the specific connections you want to make to your community and which organizations can help you do that. Use the list of organizations and resources in your community you have already identified through other tools and fill them in under the categories below to identify how potential partners can benefit your organization or make connections that will benefit your participants. You are provided with a starting point for each category.
