The Public/Philanthropic Partnership: The Your Way Home Montgomery County Story
Abstract
A quick review of the literature suggests that many communities around the world have embraced the concept of government and private-sector partnerships and collaborations. The reasons for each partnership differ, but there are numerous common elements that drive the parties to work together. Among these is the desire to:
- Right-size the infrastructure
- Enhance accountability, especially to taxpayers and beneficiaries
- Improve efficiency
- Secure cost savings and/or improve outcomes with existing resources
- Establish new sources of financing
- Enhance impact
