When identifying opportunities in your external scan, look for potential collaborations and partnerships that can support your concept.  Collaborator or collaborations describe when two or more entities choose to connect for the greater benefit of their community.  

These relationships may initially start as a collaboration with an MoU, and then evolve to needing a legal agreement if financing and/or long-term commitments are required.

Collaborations to Consider

  • a long-term care home or other employer to attract and retain employees with on-site child care
  • faith-based institutions interested in expanding their community profile or leasing/selling land
  • seek out and form relationships with developers in your community
