QUALITIES OF HEALTHY PARTNERSHIPS

Most partnerships are organized around a shared commitment to address a need.
A common concern is not enough by itself, however, to make a collaboration work. The attached document describes how healthy partnerships have the following six qualities:

1. Healthy partnerships share a compatible core mission.

2. Healthy partnerships do not hinder the faith or evangelistic witness of the church.

3. Healthy partnerships are founded on mutual trust and respect. Bishop Robbins

4. Healthy partnerships have a sense of ownership on both sides.
