Through multi-sectoral collaboration, the City of CS has forged professional relationships that have vastly improved the scale and scope of services offered to its citizens. This is not a model that simply allows local government to get back to a place where we used to be, but rather to achieve a greater level of innovation, a deeper understanding of issues, a more nuanced and sophisticated set of solutions, and ultimately to provide a more responsive, efficient and higher level of service to its citizens. Additionally, collaborative partners now have much greater access to impact, which provides an important win-win for the community!
