School-Community Based Organization Collaboratives: Differentiating between "Different Characteristics."

Jones, Bruce Anthony

Educational Research Quarterly, v20 n2 p3-16 Dec 1996

The study of four community-based organizations (CBOs) participating in the Attendance Improvement Dropout Prevention program in New York City illustrates that it is important to distinguish among the characteristics of CBOs when schools think about forming collaboratives with them. CBOs may serve very different purposes for school needs. (SLD)
