PHENND Fellows: Partner Resource Specialist

In 2013, the School District of Philadelphia¿s Office of Strategic Partnerships (¿OSP¿) was established to improve the way the District and schools engage with the many external organizations that offer programming and services at no cost to the District or schools. The core of our work centers around supporting each school in identifying and leveraging partner support to further their mission and progress towards District goals. We collaborate with schools, District offices and partner organizations to help foster trusting and purposeful relationships that contribute to school communities where students thrive.

This project is a part of the PHENND Fellows VISTA program housed at the Philadelphia Higher Education Network for Neighborhood Development (PHENND). PHENND is a network of over 25 colleges and universities that strengthens service-learning, civic engagement, and community partnership in Philadelphia.
