Community Partners produces a wide array of informational publications.

Networks that Work

If your organization has joined or is considering a networked effort with other groups, if the scale of your mission seems too daunting, too important to tackle alone, if you’re looking to leverage your resources and amplify your organizational power, this book is for you.

It covers a range of issues to consider before you decide to network, as you create a network and while you pursue networked action – all designed to help your network work.

Networks that Work, A Practitioner's Guide to Managing Networked Action

Biennial Reports

Community Partners produces a biennial report for supporters, project leaders and civic and social entrepreneurs that demonstrates the breadth and depth of our impact on the community. The 2008-2009 report – and past reports – are made available here as Adobe Acrobat PDF files. Each file is quite large, however, and may take some time to download. To avoid this, you may ask that a printed copy be mailed to you by emailing info@CommunityPartners.org with your name and mailing address.
