Kingdom Causes

::let's partner networks::

We are committed to stand with our associated cities and learn together in ways that maximize each of our unique Kingdom roles. We are always looking for tangible ways to build mutually beneficial and reciprocal partnerships with others.  Our "Let's Partner" network allows local leaders to join forces regionally and utilize tools, resources and expertise that we are developing within our Kingdom Causes association of cities.

Three "Let's Partner" network levels for cities:

     1.  Conversation level
  2.  Capacity-building level
  3.  Collaboration level

  
The "Let's Partner" network is made up of specialized organizations and also those with broad citywide focus.  We only have one organization/effort from a city, we consider that group to be the city's Kingdom Causes "Let's Partner" liaison.  When there are two or more organizations/efforts from a city represented in the "Let's Partner" network, we encourage them to each join as  individual members,  but work together in order to provide maximum local synergy.

  1. Conversation  level
       We host bi-monthly roundtables in order to provide context for valuable conversations centered on our 6 key
        city-transformation questions.
        Benefits:   Shared learnings, best practices and new friendships

  2. Capacity-building level - Ongoing coaching, training & shared learning
       We provide ongoing capacity-building, training and technical support for "Let's Partner" member cities.
