Partnerships
Service-learning partnerships can exist between and among agencies, schools, colleges or universities, businesses, government, and the community. Partnerships are important to service-learning because they allow larger populations to be served, they avoid duplication of efforts, they make better use of resources, and they enable problems to be dealt with more effectively. Partnerships also help sustain Service-learning by including more stakeholders in the effort. Following are some of our most relevant resources for this topic.
