Building a coalition of non-profit agencies to collaborate with a county health and human services agency: The Napa county behavioral health committee of the Napa coalition of non-profits.
Abstract
It is rare that a group of community-based non-profit social service
providers can successfully develop a coalition that includes not only
a range of providers, but the County Health and Human Service Agency
as well. This is a case study of a coalition of non-profit agencies
that has come together in an attempt to plan and implement a
comprehensive service delivery system to address the human service
needs of residents in Napa County, California. With the goal of
developing a comprehensive and seamless system of care for all
residents of Napa, this non-profit coalition has begun to transform:
(1) the way that services are designed and delivered, (2) the way that
non-profits work together, and (3) the role of the county health and
human services agency. The case study includes a set of obstacles
encountered and lessons learned. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2007
