This blog highlights how partnerships are springing up across the nation, bringing new people and their diverse experiences to the table, including sectors that have not traditionally considered health to be part of their mission, like community development, education, environment, transportation, business, housing, and law.
Authored by Emmy Ganos of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, the blog discusses the distinct phases of partnerships, each with their own challenges and strategic opportunities.
By describing these phases, and the common pitfalls and momentum-builders that often accompany each one, the report–Pulse Check on Multi-Sector Partnerships report, by ReThink Health, a Rippel Foundation initiative–helps partnerships know what to expect as they develop over time, and how to prepare.
