State government and philanthropy partnerships create significant opportunity to leverage the particular resources available to each sector. Frequently, these collaborations engage a third partner to bridge the operational aspects unique to each sector. This session explores the role nonprofits play in state government and philanthropy partnerships—as funding intermediaries, implementers, and conduits of knowledge—that help facilitate desired partnership outcomes. In this session, a panel of representatives from North Carolina state government agencies, philanthropic organizations, nonprofits, and the North Carolina Office of Strategic Partnerships will discuss state government, philanthropy, and nonprofit partnerships, the benefits and challenges of cross-sector collaboration, and best practices for navigating cross-sector relationships.
