Partnership Models and
Best Practices
Various
partnerships have taken shape throughout Pennsylvania to gather
momentum, support, and accomplish the planning and development
of both large- and small-scale greenways. Partnerships can take
many forms. Whether it be a partnering between a governmental
agency and nonprofit, or a national society and state network,
the purpose is the same, to create greenway networks in our communities
that protect open space and other natural resources and provide
connections between these natural features and other community
assets.
